There are potentially 2 back stories here, but one is really long and unnecessary, so I’ll just give you a few details about the other.
At our apartment, we have a concierge who takes our packages, signs them into a system, and then we automatically receive both a text and and e-mail notifying us that we have a package.
The other night while I was at work, I got a notification that I had received a package. Sometimes I do some shopping and forget about it or don’t realize when it’s going to show up. But this time, I was pretty confident I hadn’t ordered anything.
Turns out, I hadn’t! My Aunt Kathy made me some amazing gear, despite the fact that she roots for the wrong team!

I was so excited about this for multiple reasons. 1. Hawkeyes, duh. 2. Unexpected birthday surprise 3. She read my blog.
So, a take away from this, don’t assume people don’t care about you, despited your relationship. Remember you aren’t in this world alone, and it’s always great to encourage someone else without even knowing it.
Thank you Aunt Kathy for the gifts. I’m super excited about all of it, and super grateful you were able to turn away from Big Red for a few minutes! 🙂
