+*+*+ Anticipation Is half of the fun, you say! ~But I cannot wait! I must learn patience? All good things come in good time? ~And you call this fun? I'm a girl at heart. I cannot wait much longer. May I open box? May I take a peek? ~No? Then may I have a clue? Please don't torture me! May I have gift now? The suspense is killing me! WHAT IS IN THE BOX?!? +*+*+ |

Sue, this poem just now popped into my head as I was recalling my recent birthday. My friends and family know that next to my giving presents, I love receiving them--and they love to make me wait! I suppose when we're told to get in touch with our inner child, this isn't exactly what 'they' are talking about! lol This poem is somewhat of a dramatization! lol Linda |

JilGirl ~ "With patience and a kiss you can have a prince!" ~ I guess you are right, Dear Sagacious One! I really would prefer kissing princes over frogs!--Hm! That doesn't sound right! Oh, well. I'm sure you know what I mean! lol EA [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-08-2003 11:57 PM).] |

(smiles) Yay! Oh Linda, I know just how you feel, though I also love giving more than receiving, you can't help but feel so excited and want to see the presents so much! (kiss on cheek) Like I said in my journal, I chose the name Mistletoe Angel because I believe everyday should be Christmas to the extent that we give and share our love to one another and not through presents everyday but through unconditional love! (big hugggsssssss) Hehehe...can I have a clue now, pretty please, hehehe, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

FABULOUS Oh my gosh, I have NO patience at all. However, someone once told me that if you pray for patience, God will test you. Scared me to pieces and it's one thing I stay away from in my prayers. What's In the Box?? I say LOVE! When you open it, butterflies of love will come floating out. Smiles and loves, Marti Hear Blessings dropping their blossoms all around you. |

Noah ~ Like you, I get the biggest charge out of watching my friends and family open their gifts from me. I put a great deal of thought into chosing the perfect presents! Love you, Angel Boy! EA |

Nancy ~ Funny that you should mention the Chippendale dancers! On Friday I went with some of my girlfriends to watch firefighters strip for charity!--and I bought their pinup calendar! I enjoyed my read before I went to sleep! Please don't tell Sy about me going to a strip show. I don't want to ruin his illusion that I am a real angel! EA |
