So my W met me yesterday to drop off our D. It was a nice exchange. After telling her many times there was nothing I wanted for my BDay, she did end up getting me something. I was surprised, but it is nice. I actually went for a hug to thank her, it ended up being a bit more than I expected. I don't even know if it was me holding on or her, but it was a long, nice hug. Felt good.
The present was small but very thoughtful, picture frames that hold record albums (I'm a record nut). Then there is the card. Here is what it says:
"Happy happy birthday from us to you! We are thinking about you. I hope this year turns out to be a wonderful time for you. You are already making wonderful changes... We are proud of you.
Love,
Us"
I can't help but analyze it but I know I shouldn't. Any thoughts on how I should thank her?

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
