Hi Ladies,

I hope everyone of you were blessed by this lovely event that Stephanie

works so hard at. Thank you, Stephanie for all the love. This year I was paired

with a wonderful lady by the name of Linda. She wrote me a beautiful

handwritten letter describing all the joy she had on her search for treasures just

for me. She bought me a beautiful tea cup and saucer and also hunted for other goodies.

Linda found a gorgeous hankie in my favorite color, pink. It is delicate and soft, and I so appreciate the care she put into her selections. She also purchased a poodle dog figurine. I have two poodles that I adore, and this was another perfect treasure. A pretty yellow bird (I like the combination of pink and yellow) that I can enjoy was also selected along with a solar scarecrow that moves. For the taste buds, I received some Ghirardelli Chocolates and Camomile Tea. Linda also tucked in the package a scripture card: "This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will REJOICE and be glad in it" (Pslam 118:24). You may notice that the tea cup is missing in the picture. It had broken into four pieces when I received my package despite the careful packaging. I said to Linda how happy I was with the gifts, and I could pair the saucer with another tea cup. But, she wouldn't hear of it. So here is the replacement tea cup and saucer that she sent me, and oh my, it is a beauty.

Thank you, Linda, for your care and thoughtful gifts. Hugs, Kim
