Ooooo! Packages in the mail! It’s so exciting when they finally arrive that sometimes I don’t even open them. Kinda like not finishing a great book cuz you don’t want it to end!😉
Really dating myself but the BEST was collecting cereal box tops to “exchange” for a toy. You needed tons of them, saved our coins to pay for the shipping, mailed them to someplace in the midwest, and waited at least 8 weeks for that toy. You are right! Whether it was Sea Monkeys or yo-yos.. it was the thrill of racing to the mailbox... anticipation is really what it’s all about!

A wonderful reminder of the transient nature of joy. Anticipation is one of the sweetest drugs I know!
