When I came back from Australia, I brought a host of souvenirs. Part of that was an army of small koalas holding Australian flags. One of these was given to each of the people in the office. Of these, one found its way to a young daughter of one of our employees. Over the past few months I've been told stories of just how well she's kept it, including making a small home and bed for it to be comfortable.
Then when I came to work today I received this - a gift from her to say thank you for the koala. I can honestly say I've never felt so touched. This young girl I've never met liked the koala so much she handmade a card for me. And I get chocolates!
I'll have to return the gesture in style. I'm thinking a boomerang is suitable for a returning gift. The card is going up on my fridge to stay. I don't know why, but it feels special to me. :)

Dude, that's a beautiful thing. Puts me in a giving mood.
Those koalas cost so little, have given an innocent child so much happiness, and have returned so much. There's a message there for all of us and I feel that Anonymous summed it up just right. Proud of you.
You deserve that for always being the sweetie that u are
