My brother, Charlie, had me worried! You see, on my 19th birthday (May 26), I did not receive a gift from him. I thought that he had forgotten his dear brother's birthday altogether, but now I realize that he was simply extending my birthday excitement by about a month and a half!
Earlier this evening, he arrived home from a youth group beach trip. He had not come back empty-handed. For as he strode in through the door, he held in his arms my long-awaited gift...
It is a fantastic gift! I had no idea a coconut could be so cute. Well done, Charlie. Well done, indeed.
All I can say is...WOW. Does he know you or what? I mean, he could have just gotten you a cordless keyboard or something really materialistic like that, or, horrors...a GIFT certificate. This guy knows how to SHOP! You are blessed to have one fine brother. Keyboards will come and go, but you can be SURE these bears will last your WHOLE LIFE!
Your so cute! (the bear that is..) ahem.
Wow. You had a lot to say about this, Mom! Maybe you should have a blog of your own.
Adam: I agree either way, but I'm glad you clarified! Hehehe.
cute, cute, CUTE. oh yeah, and the bear too! :-)
Oh, the bear is far cuter! Hehe...
I bet you wish you were in the nice cool mountains with a coconut bear. Kinda hot out there, huh?
