A little history:
When I was growing up, we had what you call a "P.O.Box" for our mail box. I never had to walk to the end of the driveway and get the mail everyday...just stop on your way home from school at the Post Office and get your mail there.
Present Time:
These days, our mail is delivered by a sweet and kind mail lady. Everyday she walks from house to house and drops off the mail in our boxes that are at the front of the house.
Why I love her so much??
She is sweet as can be, always making sure that you're doing ok. She brings Hank and Bella a treat everyday and goes to the extent of leaving treats on the window's ledge if we're not home.
Once she found out I was pregnant, she was so excited. She could hardly stand it. The first thing she asked was if I needed anything. Now really, who expects their mail courier to be so giving?? I would've never thought.
She told me the next day that she was going to get the girls a little outfit to come home in...and let me tell you she did.
One day I heard my door bell rang and it was her. She had brought me (well the girls) a gift.
Let me tell you, these little outfits are OH SO CUTE!!!
How she knew that I loved butterflies, I couldn't tell you..
All I know is that I'm thankful that I have a wonderful Mail Lady like I do. She brings a smile to my face when I see her every day...and the dogs too.
So, if you have your mail delivered by someone that walks around from house to house, try to make a point to converse with them. Not only will it bring one more purpose to your busy day, but it brings a little sunshine to their day and their repetitive job.
