Last week a package arrived. A package for me! It was from my cousin Susu and I couldn’t imagine what it could be. I was really excited to open it because she always gives the best gifts like a cool bathrobe with my monogram on it.

I opened it carefully cause it looked fragile.

First I spied a letter. I’m not quite there yet with reading so I asked Mommy to read it to me.

She said it was an advent chain! And that Susu had made it! How did she know I have been dying for one of those!

  Careful open

I studied it to admire the artistry (and make sure she had all 25 days and didn’t miss one hehe). It was perfect. So festive and pretty. Mommy was happy because this advent chain will help me count down the days to Christmas so I can stop asking her every five minutes how many more days until Santa comes.

  

We held it up to admire all of her work.

  

Then I took off my first link of the chain. #1.

  

We found the perfect place to hang it up on the wall.

Mommy then told me about the yummy treats that Susu’s mom used to send like fried pies and cocoons.

I’m hoping those are coming next!

Thanks again Susu!! I feel so loved!
