I am criminally late in posting this, and I'm terribly sorry. Having a newborn around the house has sapped me of my motivation to do much more than change diapers and lose sleep. Suffice it to say that my Santa is the most talented, thoughtful, generous gifter I have ever been lucky enough to draw in an exchange.

My first gift (yes, there were multiple), was an adorable stuffed humpback whale (in tribute to my favorite Trek film). Then, I received an excellent three-pack of TNG Kindle books. I've been out of Trek fiction for a number of years, so I can't wait to jump back in. Then, I received the motherlode - a beautiful package full of thoughtful and handmade items - A TOS Kid's book of opposites for my little one (that my wife and I can't stop laughing about), some lovely, scented soaps, handmade soap holders (in Trek uniform colors), and the piece de resistance, handmade Trek pot holders/trivets with the Trek logo on them. I just can't express my gratitude enough.

Ever so often, a gifter goes above and beyond. Whenever I look at the gift gallery, I'm always wowed by the talents of people who are able to make amazing things with their hands. I'm doubly humbled when those people give of their talents to complete strangers. I was lucky enough to land one of those unicorns this time around. Again, I'm so sorry for the unforgivable lateness of my posting. Thank you so much! This was, hands down, the cooolest, warming-my-heartest reddit exchange gift I've ever received.
