I couldn't wait another day

My September DTC Secret pal included these presents with the ones I opened yesterday. The card said to wait on the "purple" presents until March. Well, today is March so I couldn't wait any longer.






The play food is so adorable and so is everything else. There was a note with a jade necklace that I'll treasure forever. It reads....

Dear Mom,

I know sometimes it feels like you will never get to meet me because it is taking so long. But, I want you to remember that although I haven't seen your face or felt your heartbeat, I am already with you.

Through your secret pal, I have sent along this jade heart from China for you to wear around your neck to always remind you that even though we haven't met yet, you are already in my heart.

I am anxiously waiting to meet you and my new family.

Love, Madelyn

I had tears in my eyes reading this. I'll definitely wear the necklace.

My September Secret Pal is Samantha Bullock. She's really put lots of thought into all her gifts she has sent me. Thanks again, Samantha. I've really enjoyed being your secret pal.
