When we got home from the birthday party, we found a surprise package in the mail. It was addressed to Cups without a returning address. The clue we had was that the address included USA in it.
It was a Charlie and Lola's magazine — certainly not available in the US. There was no note in the package. Our second piece of clue was that the price was in pounds. The gift had come from Mama's cousin, Uncle Mike, in the Netherlands! Uncle Mike travels to England for business and thought about Cups. Mama loves how Charlie teaches Lola new things about living in this world as her older brother. Thank you very much, Uncle Mike!
Cups had nail polish in her party favor bag. Don, one of our favorite neighbors, painted Cups' nails while Mama channeled Reiki for Gae's new knee.
After Cups thanked Don, she said, "I wished my toenails were painted, too." Gae asked Don to paint them as well, and Don put Cups on the table. Thank you, Don!!! (Don and Gae are super good with kids. Cups loves to visit them.)
After cups picked a raspberry, she didn't want to eat it. Here Gae posed with the raspberrry.
