I walked into my office to find a bag full of items on my desk. Not knowing who it was for or from, I placed the items on Jeremy's desk. He informed me that it wasn't his so I decided to take a look through the stuff. It turns out it was a wedding gift. There were several items with notes attached. Here's what I found:

Coffee: "For staying up as late as it takes to 'not let the sun set on your
anger"
A Mirror: "For figuring out who should apologize first."
Lemonade: "When life gives you lemons... Ministry brings many challenges to marriage. Instead of letting yourself resent ministry, work through the problems openly & always praise God for taking you both out of darkness & calling you to serve Him
A Mask: "Nicole, culture says submission is weakness. It may seem so, but actually submission is power in disguise. Respecting our husbands empowers us to glorify Christ.
A Frame: "Picture what you want your family to be, & don't do anything that interferes with that picture. Opportunities will arise."
A Nightgown: "Nothing says 'not tonight, honey' like a polka dot moo moo"
An Unmentionable: "For the other six nights a week"
I have good friends. Now to figure out who left the bag...
