I Love Surprises!

When I went to check my mailbox yesterday it hadn't been one
of my better days.  Things at work have been a little crazy and
it was wearing on my mind.  Was having a hard time settling down
to accomplishing anything.  But....

....when  I opened my mailbox, there was this wonderful
envelope addressed to me and I recognized the return address
immediately and as I returned to the house, I was already
feeling happy and excited to see what my friend, Karen,
had sent me.

This what I found inside the envelope:  A darling snowman
bag with a little tag telling me to "open now".  I LOVE
Snowmen!













Carefully opening the little sack, I pulled this out:
Snowflake wrapping paper!  What could be inside?













Six beautifully handcrafted Christmas Cards! (two of
each design)  Karen's daughter, who is very talented,
makes and sells cards for all occasions.











Such a lovely surprise.  One that put a smile on my face
and warm thoughts in my heart.  Certainly brightened my
day, that's for sure.

Thank you so much, Karen!
