A Sweet Surprise

OUR HEART GREETING:

On Saturday, while I was staying warm and dry in the house (out of the rain), a surprise package was delivered to my door.

Now, I knew that something might be arriving at some point in the future since I gave my address to someone who asked for it. But I had completely forgotten about that....until I opened the special package.

Inside the box, I found the letter and mug pictured above (or on the left). Such a sweet message which gives no names other than coming from the creative group of Our Heart Greeting. I think I first became acquainted with one of the originators of the group on Twitter this past spring, but they've been active for over 2 years.

Members of their group are some of those who donated their art to Todd's t-shirt project, the art of which blows me away. See, already I'm thinking about the people behind the website or twitter IDs or Facebook pages.

So with a smile on my face, I opened the gift within the package. Inside I found an OHG mug which is so cool in and of itself, a jar of Goofy Chix wildflower honey, a tube of Goofy Chix lip balm, a sparkly prism bead MS bracelet, and a kitchen magnet which says "Act to Cure Multiple Sclerosis."

I'm very touched and honored. Thank you ladies. I don't know who nominated me, nor who contributed to the gifts. It doesn't matter much and I can respect that.

Please know that you have done a wonderful thing and I appreciate it.

Thank You.
