It's a trip!: Truly impressive...

Truly impressive...

I've been cleaning out my cedar chest, trying to make some sort of sense out of the pictures, children's drawings, ticket stubs, postcards, etc, that I've managed to accumulate over the last 30-odd years. While sitting knee-deep in wal-mart photo envelopes, I came across something very odd.

An envelope. Addressed to my sister. Three addresses ago. That I never sent. Curious, I opened it.

It was.....

A birthday card!

with pictures of my daughter in it....

dated 1996!

Woo-hoo! I've now put this card in the mail, thereby setting the family record for lateness! My parents would be so proud.

(love you Jen!)
