I am married and have 2 children and another on the way- mid 30s. My close friend from growing up is single and unattached. She has been very generous for all of the occasions in my life- engagement, wedding, birth of children, children's birthdays, christmas, chanukah & valentine gifts for my kids- the list goes on and on. She ain't exactly rich- she's just very thoughtful, very giving and a great friend. So the problem is, we never get to reciprocate. For a long time we just figured that she would settle down and we'd get our chance to celebrate her milestones- but as it seems less and less likely we need a new plan. What can we do that express our gratitude for her friendship and generosity, without shining a light on the fact that she doesn't have some of the things in her life to celebrate that she wants? My wife and I are at a total loss- any ideas?
