Anna: zzzZZZzzzZZZ
Me: Anna, wake up!
Anna: *yawn* Oh, hi Heather! I was just taking a nap.
Me: Yeah, sorry to wake you, but a package came for you!
*puts package contents down in front of Anna*

Anna: Whoa! Lookit all this! Who is it from?
Me: Your cousin, Chou.
Anna: Oh! Is there a letter?!
Anna: Oh my goodness! She wrote so much! I think I need to write her back a longer letter. T_T
Me: I'm sure your letter will be fine, no matter how long it is. It's not a competition.
Anna: Isn't it? ISN'T IT?! You know how family is!
Me: Uh... what?
Anna: I don't know, I saw this tv show where the family was very competitive,
so I thought that's how families were. Aren't they like that?

Me: No! Well... sometimes... wait, NO! No more TV for you, missy!
Anna: Aww, look, she also sent shells she collected on her trip! These are going on my shelf!
Anna: Oh, there was this little package in the letter too...
Anna: EEEE! Look! It's a necklace made from one of the shells she found!
How did she drill the little hole in it?!
Ok, now on to the boxes!

Anna: Mmmph!!
Me: Anna, you really need to be more careful. -_-;;
Anna: EEE! Earrings!! These are so cute!
Me: Wow! It was so nice of her to send you so many!
You'll have to share with the other girls.

Anna: I'm surprised Madoka isn't already here to nab some. -_-
Me: Er... me too, actually. That worries me.
Me: Here's a closeup of them!
If you're interested in a pair,
please contact Retrograde and see if she has any left to sell!

Wall-E is fascinated by the earrings... I think he wishes he had ears.
Anna: Sorry, Heather, I couldn't wait, I opened the next box
and it was filled with these lovely barrettes!

Me: Oh, we'll have to see who looks good in them!
Anna: I think Alna should wear the red bow... or maybe the pink bunny... I don't know.
Do you think she'll wear them both?
Do you think she'll wear them both?
Me: Well, maybe not at the same time... but I'm sure she'll love to wear them. :)
Anna: Thank you SO much, Chou! Our package is currently on it's way to you... and my letter!
Make sure you follow the instructions on the letter's envelope. *nod*
Anna: I really, really, really love my new necklace! It seems perfect for a Geocacher...
to wear a necklace that is a found item.
It's just SO cool!

Me: Yes, thank you, Chou and Elly, you totally made Anna's day... and probably Madoka's too, if I could just find where she got off to... she's so... sneaky sometimes.
It's like she's everywhere and nowhere all at once. -_-

(Yes, I just cannot help but allude to Madoka's past almost every time I mention her...
it's like a sickness.)
