This afternoon, my swap box from
Sandra arrived. Or, rather, the stork made a hefty delivery.
I'm like dancing-around-laughing brand of delighted over the contents of the box. I got the best best best possible box!
Cue the fruit!
First, let me say, Sandra you have superhumanly good handwriting. Also, you are a gift wrapping guru.

Also, I LOVE Hello Kitty and she included a journal and a set of stickers from Sanrio.
So adorable!

There's a crib and crib blanket, two color collar bottles, a bear sippy cup, a mostly-complete stack toy, star panties, a duck pull toy, a BABY necklace, a bear brush, a duck comb and--as if that wasn't enough cuteness--a first tooth pillow WITH the felt tooth.
As an accessories-focused collector--this was all kinds of happy!
*and THEN* I got to the pony-shaped packages. (Which were actually astonishly square and regimentally box-shaped because Sandra works gift-wrapping magic.)

This year I'm having a big UK focus--buying the ones I don't have, hunting them online, and finding even more for my swap partners. It couldn't have been a sweeter swap than to get a couple UK ponies in it. Thank you!
So yeah, I got massively spoiled. Sandra--you're gold class and I consider myself phenomenally lucky to have gotten a swap box of yours. Thank you so much!
I feel like a million bucks....or a dancing apple.
