Maybe she or she will see this posting and figure it out. Hoping the package will be liked!!! Should be there tomorrow.

Do you have any idea how crazy the people here (in my house) think I am!?!?! I Got My Firmie Today!!! And Have been getting laughed at for the last 20 min. because I can't stop happy dancing after opening it!!!
Thank You Thank You Thank You SharonAnne! I LOVE Everything. I'm posting pics in a sec. She sent so many amazing things I'm just stunned. First, my son and I both adore the homemade card with the seals on it. I read it and am so touched you put so much thought into my firmie. Include in the firmie is: 3 4th of July ribbons, 4th of July button, 2 blue fq's (beautiful colors), spider-man coloring book for Payton (he did his own happy dance, and then asked if I planned on sharing the candy), Cowtails candy (yum we're still in debate about exactly how much is being shared, he seems to think I should get 2 and the rest are his lol), A pre-printed freezer paper sheet (I can't wait to try it!), 4 pkg of buttons (Def. going to use these scrap-booking thank you), metallic hand-quilting thread (It is so beautiful I'm almost scared to try it but, no worries I'm already forming a special quilt for this), water soluble marking pen (mine quit working about a week ago, I think you may have esp), and last but not least the most adorable donut pin cushion!
You think wow at this point? Me To, but that's not it. She also sent me a book and bookmark and The most dazzling, amazing, splendid (are we getting how much I LOVE this!!) card I have ever seen!
Ok, Mallorie quit happy dancing in your seat and post pictures for these nice people.
On a personal note for Sharon. Thank You so much. You have made this the best birthday I have had in several years! I love the card and just because I like Amy Brown art does not mean your card is any less wonderful, actually you have given me a new artist to enjoy. I hope your birthday on the 28th is as amazing as you have made mine. I am simply in awe of your thoughtfulness and I hope you can feel how much I appreciate this :)
Didn't post the harlequin book and bookmark (bookmark is 3D and wasn't playing nice with my camera, and well I'm reading the book already)

I came home from the hospital today, after being in for a week and found my package from Katvert on the table waiting for me. She sent me: a J initial journal, J initial pencils, J notepads 5 pieces of fabric, some hard candy, and I Love Lucy License plate and magnet and some hot pads. Thank you so much!!

I am sitting here on the bench, but need to go fix dinner...DH thinks it's time to eat. I better be nice to him. He has been working in the yard all day and made me over a dozen birdhouses and some bird feeders the past couple of days to take to the street fair next weekend. Anyone else on the bench? I won't get too close as I have a sore throad and a dry hacky cough...think it's probably just allergies...

You are sooooo, sewwww very welcome. Your enthusiasm and extremely kind reaction made my day and even "I" did a happy dance. I love to give gifts, and when you put your heart into finding and making things, it is gratifying to receive such a lovely response as yours. I have had a couple of SP's who never even acknowleged that they received my packages, much less like them, and it was very disheartening for me. But you have made it all worthwhile, and I want to do this all over again in July!!! Happy b-day!
