Today was definately a Monday. I had a test in Ethics, a test in Administrative Law, and a quarter final in Family Law. By the time 5 o'clock rolled around I was about done.
When I got home and saw the giant box on the dining room table, I knew something was up.
I'll let Rug post about the cigars. I don't know that I could do them justice, except to say "Holy ****!".
In an amazing outpouring of generosity, this dear lady hit every single member of this household.
Gabriel, who loves Thomas the Tank Engine, received a Thomas flashlight that makes real engine sounds. He has been toting it around with him all evening, and will most likely take it to bed.
Libby's eyes lit up when she saw the clock puzzle. She chased me around while I was trying to get it open for her! She has had it apart and put it together multiple times, and I know it will be a toy she will return to time and again.
Suzi also included a mini soccer ball and an interactive DVD for the kids. Remember the stories where the reader gets to choose the ending? This DVD is the same way! How cool is that?
There are two darling makeup cases, and guess what? We have two darling teenage girls in this family! A perfect fit.
She is spoiling me rotten, and I could get used to this. I received a Burt's Bee's skin care sampler (I love that Burt and his bees!), the most wonderful smelling decaf coffee beans, a clever little coffee scented candle that looks like a shot of espresso, a CD of beautiful Christmas music, a magnet that means a lot to me, and a tiny stained glass angel with my name on it.
Thank you, Suzi, from the bottom of my heart. You took an otherwise crummy day and made it fun. We all need a shot of that from time to time!
