First I'm starting with the card. It was such a pretty card that didn't photograph well. It's actually 3D in the sense the stockings & gifts are popped out and it's just very pretty, but my Santa wrote the most beautiful message. It touched me so deeply I actually got teary reading the first sentence. And I'm sorry you know illness. I wish you well, and your gift "wasn't much" it was perfect. It had meaning and love and kindness and I love it.

Before I get to what I love most, besides my Santas loving heart, they generously gave me a $40 gift card that can be used in multiple shops. And it will be used. I will buy something special. Thank you.

I lost my mum to cancer this year. It was a hideous time and there isn't a day that has gone past where I don't miss her.

My Santa has made me these beautiful charms & a key ring. My mum was big on gemstones and the moment I saw the tigers eye and the red carnelian (I think) hearts on these I got teary again. We watch the birds bathe, and she used to collect feathers. She has a tree of life painting she worked with, and the symbol has been part of our family for years and of course the angels... These mean more to me than I can put into words and I have tears running down my cheeks as I type this. I held them and felt a spiritual connection. I've never been to the Northern Territory but maybe one day I will be fortunate enough.

Thank you so much. These will be treasured. Have a blessed 2019. xox
