A Surprise Gift

Last November, three ladies from the Daughters of Isabella [a Catholic women's group] came to Shore Pointe Assisted Living to hear my presentation about Lucille Ball because they're considering the program for their group.

I received a text from one of the ladies this morning saying she was near my neighborhood and wanted to drop off a package.  I've only met her once, but I told her that would be fine.  She was on her way to another appointment and didn't have time to come in, but handed me the lovely pink gift bag below.

Inside was a 2020 I Love Lucy calendar with pictures of different episodes for each month of the year.

The gift bag also included a lovely tea-themed figurine.  I've been collecting tea-themed figurines a long time, but I've never seen this one.  It's called 'Tea for Two' angel tea party.  Two children and two angels.  I hope that's symbolic of tea parties in Heaven!  ;-)

I was so touched by her kindness and thoughtfulness.  Thanks for making my day, Lisa!
