There Were Gifts!

poeticness had told me to watch the mail, so I dutifully checked the post office box from time to time. Today I checked the box and discovered handmade gifts from her!

There was a painting.



And a necklace for T, which she keeps running to the mirror to admire.



And earrings for me!



There was also a loc ornament, which I will wear when I set my locs free from their flat twists.

She also enclosed the sweetest note, saying she made these things because she knew I was going through a rough time.

I am so blessed to have such thoughtful people in my life. Thanks, again, dear!
