Valentines Surprise!


What a wonderful surprise I received in the post today!
I just couldn't believe my eyes!
The mailman walked up to my door with a special box just for me.
I was so excited, and couldn't wait to open it!
You see, this surprise is from a very dear friend. Her name is Jackie, and I was paired up with her some years ago in a secret pal exchange. How blessed I was the day that happened! She has sent me the most beautiful "Souvenir Of Friendship Keepsake" that I will treasure forever. It is filled with beautiful sayings, ribbons, cards, pretty buttons, and treasures. There is even a picture of Raggedy Ann and Andy inside!
I can see how much work She put into this treasure, and it will always be very special to me. Jackie also sent me three wonderful Heart In Hand Valentine Charts.
I love them Jackie!
Thank you so much for being my sweet Friend.
You made my Valentines Day extra special.
Lucky am I to have a friend in you!
There was a little passage tucked inside one of the pages...a saying that I have always loved "Are we going to be friends forever?" Asked Piglet....
"Even Longer" Pooh Answered.....
