MANIC monday .
This manic monday is inspired by, "What was the best gift you have received?" These next few items may seem a little strange to others but are actually the best gifts I've revived. None of which were extremely expensive, but more so have a lot of sentimental value (and sentimental value is what i'm all about). So i am here to share with you the simple, kind gestures given to me.
.
Andy's doll Woody from Toy Story, this doll was given to me when I was a wee lad from an Aunt who is now deceased. As a child, I was in absolute love with Toy Story, so my Aunt (Alva) gave me this doll as well as signed my name on the shoe to indicate I was also the owner of Woody. It basically means a lot because 1. My aunt died and she was my fav aunt, like the lady was great OK. and 2. I've had it for a really long time.
To Kill a Mockingbird, as a little book worm, books are never a bad gift, BUT this book right here is probably my absolute fav (on a list of other absolute favorite books because who really has one book that is their fav???) anyway, this book was given to me by my darling cousin. This just means a lot because I really just love this novel and the message within it but also this book has given me quality time spent with great discussion with Genn + two of my fav English teachers.
and last but surely not least, the most cherished gift I probably own. My Bible. This is the best story too, okay ready. In 2013 during summer camp my friends and I (Noah, Emily, Robert, Zech, Zach Angela, and some others) were in Lake Arrowhead inside one of their book stores and I was browsing and stumbled upon this Bible (and mind you I was looking for a new one because yanno my old one was jacked up) It fit the description that I was exactly looking for BUT, I DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY. So disappointed, I walked away and tried to pretended I didn't just see the most perfect bible ever. Long story short my little Havasu Crew squabbled up their money together for me and bought it! Baffled and surprised, i cried (of course cause i'm always crying and sappy and emotional) following the purchase i asked them to sign it. I honestly treasure this and the story that comes along with it.
once again, if you've made it this far down to the end, thank you
