Thank you Lynn for this amazing birthday surprise! Owen says thank you too- he NEVER takes photos but agreed for this! I LOVE my card! Absolutely gorgeous! And I‘m blown away from how much fun was in my box 😘💛🙌💛😘 You made my day- it‘s been achy and rainy and I‘m ruminating over a million things and now am going to have fun with my goodies.

wanderinglynn A little Japanese fun (except the puzzle, which is made in the US). 🇯🇵⛩☺️ So happy you like it! 3y

Soubhi, something from you has arrived! The outer box didn‘t give me any clues, so I opened far enough to see it was from you. It‘s now safely set away for Monday. Whatever it is, the box sure smelled good (Bindi thought so, too)! I‘m excited!

Soubhiville Yay! Hopefully the two bookshop boxes won‘t be too far behind! 4y
Soubhiville I just looked at the tracking and unfortunately the bookshop packages say delivery Monday and Friday next week. 😢 I‘m sorry they‘ll be late! Glad you‘ve at least got this to open on time. Happy Birthday! 4y
Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville No worries! Package delivery here suddenly slowed WAY down about a month ago unless it‘s priority, which is also a day or two delayed. I have no idea why and the post office hasn‘t been informative. It is what it is. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I‘ll be delighted with them whenever they arrive. 😊 4y

Going to be sending your present tomorrow. Hope you like it ❤️😘

squirrelbrain I‘d like one of those parcels too! 😻 5y
ljuliel Can you send me a kitty on my birthday too ? It‘s a couple months away so you‘ll have time to find a box the right size. I like grey ones just like yours. 5y
Caroline2 Ohhhh yay!!! I would love to receive a kitty by post! I‘m so cat broody!!! 😆 thank you so much for sending a present, I‘m sure I‘ll love it. 💖 5y

I‘m the worst! Im like a little kid! It‘s my hubs birthday on Saturday and now that I‘ve wrapped his presents I want to give them to him RIGHT NOW! 😆 I also wanted to post pictures of them on here, but I‘m afraid he‘ll see them! I‘m a very patient person, except when it comes to technology and giving presents! 😂

ReviewsbytheMrs My husband is the same way! 7y
Louise I'm the same! I put so much thought into choosing and wrapping gifts that I can barely wait for the recipient to open them. I've even given things early because I just can't wait for that person to have them!😂 Your gifts look lovely, by the way! 7y
Craftylikefox I am the same way! It‘s so hard to hide it haha I love your wrapping paper! 7y
