out of wondering about what's yet to come:
I had another birthday on March 17 and today I received a very special birthday card. You see, she mailed it on March 13.....in plenty of time. But once the post office got their hands on it - they sent it back to her! How confusing!
So, with another envelope and more stamps and a little help, here's the happy envelope I received today.
and inside was the original envelope. I see a Too and a From and a stamp all in the right places. What's the deal? I thought the post office could deliver with an address and zip! And that seems to be there. Well, maybe the street address has been edited a bit and a last name penciled in by unknown adult.
Anyway, I received the best hand made, one-of-a-kind (no doubt about that) original birthday card in the mail today, April 1, and that's no fooling.
Oh, and the artist and card maker is 7 years old.

Yes, Finley, it was a grate birthday. Thank you for your love.

Finley could well grow up and teach some posties how to do their job!
ReplyDeleteI agree...don't you just love her creative spirit. And to think she addressed the envelope herself. I just love that kid.
ReplyDeleteOh, she's a smart one: mail it out in time for your birthday but prepare for the worst and have an April Fool joke inserted, just in case. I think Plan B worked especially well for Finley and now you have a sweet story to share with.....the world! Have a great Easter!
ReplyDeleteYes, Mary, a smart one and a smarty pants too. Some kids just have it all.
