Well, I love my children with all my heart. Words can't describe the love I hold for them or lengths I would go for their happiness. This post, however, is not about my love for them but the love of others for them! One person in particular honestly and truly is crazy about my children and has never even met them! This person is a Lady by the name of Nicole Jones*.
Nicole works sporadically with my dad when he does free lance graphics and such for sports broadcasts. I have never personally met Nicole only have I read about her travels, and listened to my dad talk about her! She is way too considerate of my family! Before Lil Gary was even born she was wishing us well, and excited for my dad and us to be experiencing such a wonderful gift of a baby. After Lil Gary was born she sent a gift in the mail for him which consisted of a miniature "Stanley cup" and a Columbus Blue Jacket's onsie for him to wear. I put the "Stanley cup" up on a shelf for safe keeping and he finally fit his onsie when he was about 8 months old! It was so adorable. I thought that was the sweetest thing ever, to not even know Gary or I and to send us a gift for our baby!
Then last Friday came! Nicole spent an entire month in China, exploring a bit and working the 2008 Summer Olympics! Yes, her life is way more exciting than mine! Well, she purchased some stuffed Chinese character type dolls that had different meanings. She sent two of them to my Dad's house for the kids! One for Gary one for Cara! I don't have them in front of me right now but I will post pics and the meanings soon! I decided to show Lil Gary them and explained to him that we were putting them away to be kept forever. I explained to him they could be worth "BIG MONIES" one day! Now tell me how lovely of a person is she! She went to a foreign country and thought about my children and getting them a present or "Prize" as Gary calls it! What a wonderful Gal! I can not thank her enough for thinking of them, especially when she doesn't HAVE TO! It's weird though in China I know they have this red string theory that says everyone is born and connected to everyone that will have an impact on their lives with a red strand! I hope to follow the strand to actually meet Nicole one day!
Nicole if you are reading this, THANK YOU SINCERELY! I really am touched by you! Gary asks me for those dolls every day and I have to tell him no! I am saving them! THANK YOU AGAIN! There will be something arriving for you at your house soon!
