I spent the morning writing vows and drawing frogs and lily pads.

I spent the afternoon plant shopping.

I found a plant the same age as our friendship, with lily pad-esque leaves.

I delivered the drawing, vows, and plant unannounced. The unannounced part was not well received.

I immediately left.

I never got a chance to tell him the many symbolic meanings frogs have been assigned throughout ancient history. I never got a chance to tell him the plant is the same age as our friendship.
