a parcel arrived from the kids in Ottawa… once I received text permission to open it, I discovered 3 boxes, a package that said it needed to go into the fridge, and a small chocolate bar, lol…

I had fun wrapping them and put purple ribbons on them before adding them to the growing pile under the tree… they are the first gifts for me…

it was funny to wrap my own parcels, but was a reminder of the few times I might have purchased my own gift, wrapped and put it under the tree… although usually those items would go to my beloved and he would wrap them up, lol…

fun memories… nice that now I can mostly look back on them without tears…
