Thank you, Secret Sis!
January 23, 2007I signed up for a "Secret Sister" through Training Hearts and got my first care package in the mail Saturday. At first, I thought the package must be for the entire month of February, but now I am not sure since everything was wrapped up in one box. When I opened the package that came in the mail, I found a sweet note card in an envelope and a package wrapped in wrapping paper. I unwrapped the package to find this lovely box:
My girls were quite envious, but I immediately found the perfect purpose for such a box as this. I put all my note cards, envelopes, and stamps in it. This wasn't exactly a stroke of genius since my secret sister had already put a nice package of note cards in the box. I'm not going to show them here in case I absent-mindedly send one to the secret sister assigned to me. Better safe than sorry.
Along with the note cards, though, were candles in my favorite scents.
The box smelled heavenly when I opened it up. The candles are scented "Cinnamon Stick", "Farmhouse Apple", and "Mom's Apple Pie". I can't decide which one to burn first. I think it will be "Mom's Apple Pie". Thank you so much, secret sister of mine. I feel very blessed to have such a thoughtful friend out there praying for me.
