One of the things I love about living here is that because my Mum can't visit often, she sends me lots of parcels. We definitely keep Australia Post in business, with the amount of parcels and cards we send and receive. Today Charlotte and I returned home from Mother Goose time to find something special in our letterbox!
Yay! A package from Mum containing a knitted dress for Charlotte's birthday (I just have to add some buttons) and some children's books from the swap meet.
There was a book for me 'The Australian Woman's Weekly Kids Parties' (circa 1991!) and a newspaper clipping of my brother at 'Strut Dance' opening night.
The two things I love most about Mum's packages are the hand written letter, and random objects she encloses. This time, to fill the satchel, Mum sent two packets of 'pretty' serviettes. We are still working our way through the last lot of 'pretty' serviettes, I believe we have enough to last until 2020!
