Cherish the Thought

Our niece, Arianna, along with her parents, little brother and Uncle Chris will be coming to visit next weekend. Since Arianna's 5th birthday was at the end of June, we decided to send her a certificate for an all day pass to Disneyland and California Adventure Park, along with some Carebear stickers I bought at the store. I spent a few minutes making an "official" certificate on our computer at home before guiltily dropping it into the mail quite a few days late.

Ari opened up her card after breakfast yesterday and was very excited about this simple gift. My sister-in-law told me that Ari couldn't wait to share her new stickers with her friends. She also couldn't stop talking about the "four" rides she was going to go on at Disneyland.

We received this picture by email and couldn't resist. We had to post it. Isn't it cute? Remember a time when you were excited to receive somethings as simple as a few sheets of stickers for your birthday and couldn't wait to share? This image warms our hearts and reminds us what the true spirit of generosity is and about the simple pleasures in life.
