New Kindle

Friday evening I came home to an Amazon box waiting by my front door. I happened to be chatting with my MIL on my phone and I said, "Ooh! We got an Amazon box!" To which she casually replied, "Oh what did you order?" I got a little sad because I hadn't ordered anything, but I thought maybe Micah did. The box said both of our names which was weird. (We always just put our own name to stake the claim of who gets to open the box mostly...we are like five year olds when something other than a bill comes in the mail. Seriously, it's SO exciting!) I decided to open it with Karen as my witness, incase I wasn't supposed to. Much to my surprise there was a Kindle inside. I gasped and said, "It's a Kindle! There has to be a mistake!"
Thankfully, there was no mistake. The Amazon receipt said, "Just because I love you!" and it was from my MIL! How sweet is that!?! She had just gotten one and knew that I would love it! Talk about timing! She thought it was coming the following day so it was a happy surprise for her that she got to open it with me. Now I can enjoy all of my summer reading on my new gadget! Wahoo!! The word on the street is that Kindle users will soon be able to check library books out to read, too! SO exciting!
Oh I love surprises!
