First Gift

It was there, sitting outside the front door in a large Macy's box waiting to be found. Our first wedding gift. Opening the cardboard box revealed a second, smaller white box with a white bow on it from someone with the last name of Heinrich which I did not recognize but hoped Loren would. And upon opening the second box there is sat. Out of layer after layer of protective bubble wrap it had come to sit there and and be smiled upon. Our first wedding present, a teapot.

The irony is rich given the dichotomy of drink tastes between Loren and myself. I liking all things hot as well as many other cooler drinks and he nearly loathing all things hot. We were both excited and highly amused by this first of gifts.

Speaking of gifts, Fate and I do realize that we have yet to get you your gift. We, however, are going to get you something. But, seeing as we are so far out of town - we didn't want to try and drag it on the plane or ship it (which just seems sort of technological and impersonal). So, we will be keeping an ear open for what you need in the apartment and once we are less out-of-town, will be purchasing you something utterly useful.

Oh, and I better not forget wlakdbij!
