My New Willow Tree Angels

OK, you are my friends or you wouldn't be reading this, and you KNOW I'm not very materialistic, but I've gotta show you some very meaningful and appropriate gifts I've received lately.

First Annette sent me the Angel of Learning for Christmas, which couldn't be more perfect. It's holding a book, which I have decided is a Bible, and to me it represents all the free time I'll have to read the Bible now that I'm retired.

Then Mava (see picture below) gave me the Friendship Angel at our last state staff meeting together, which couldn't have been more perfect since we were instant friends from my first day on the job 10 years ago!

Today Lana, my long-time Literacy Specialist cohort and dear friend at the Co-op, gave me the Guardian Angel watching over my pre-born grandchild, and the Freedom Angel because because now I'm FREE, both of which couldn't be more perfect!

Don't you just LOVE to get the perfect gift? (Not that YOU are materialistic either)!
