'I woke with my heart full'
Today marks 14 years of marriage to the greatest love of my life," Emma wrote on Instagram about her and her 'Die Hard' star husband Bruce Willis. "I woke with my heart full but what my mind kept going back to was another person's act of kindness yesterday I wanted to share as it inspired the heck out of me." she continued. Emma went on to explain the act by writing further, "In passing at a school event for our children, I mentioned to my friend that our anniversary was tomorrow. Cut to, I get a text from my friend later that day that said she left “a little something” for me at my door. It was this sweet bouquet of flowers (pictured) with a note that said Happy Anniversary amongst other things."
'This random act of kindness will honestly stay with me'
Talking about how hard special occasions can be on caregivers as the person wouldn't acknowledge the event with "changing brains", she further said, "It got me thinking about how hard these types of “special occasions” can be on caregivers. When usually our person would acknowledge the event, now their changing brains just can’t. And that is what it is." Emma said one should not ask what one can do but instead one should do it. "So my point is this. If you know someone that is looking after someone else, don’t ask what you can do, just do. This random act of kindness will honestly stay with me for a long time. I love you Juliya. You singlehandedly made this day special for us 💐💞 #randomactsofkindness #gratitude #friendship," she concluded.
