Mail Surpise

Why am I writing about a surprise I got in my mail?  Well going to give you a back story for you to understand.
We have all heard of pinterest at this point.  I, like countless others, find myself pinning.  I do it more to kill time while waiting for my husband to get on off his computer, but i digress.  I found this cute shirt.  For others it is nothing special, but for me I loved it.  I'm starting to study photography to become better.  Very rarely do I not have my camera with me.  At this point it is like another appendage.  So I have camera and taking pictures on the brain.  I still have a lot to learn, but photography has become a frustrating challenge that I LOVE.  What better way to express yourself, show where you have been, and keep your memories alive.
Back to the point.....I posted this shirt on pinterest wanting it, but most likely was not going to get it (I'm old school and not a fan of ordering online-mainly 'cause i don't read the small print).
My husband calls and says I have a package in the mail.  I see it is from NY and think it must be for him, but I open it anyway.  To my surprise it is the shirt I posted.  I can think of only one friend who would pay that much just cause she saw the "LOVE! WANT! NEED!" on the comments.
I don't expect gifts from my friends. This will sound corny, but for those special few I call a true friend their friendship to me is all I could ask for and want.  With that said it was very touching  when she has so many other things going on then to find and order a shirt I want.

For that I love my friend very much.  How she juggles all she does I have no clue, which I guess why this means more to me than a shirt I wanted.
So my dearest sweetest friend, thank you!


Don't let the dork in the picture take away from the shirt
Oh and to Marla at WrenWillow thank you for lovely paper and careful packaging with my shirt :)
