Early Birthday Gifts

Hey everyone, how are you doing? My friend sent me, and my son some gifts for our birthday. One of his gifts was so cute I had to share it. It is a little astronaut ceramic piece that holds his glasses. He put it on his computer desk right away. She also got him a shirt that says "My worst nightmare" and shows a low battery signal, weak wifi, and buffering icon. That is definitely a shirt for him! She sent me a few items as well, more just useful home items, and a box with a glass top that she did a hand etched drawing. We have never met in person, but we have spoken through e-mail for over 20 years now. She's always been so generous and sent me gifts for birthdays and holidays. I give back to her when I can. But I can never fully show my appreciation... What do you think of his cute little astronaut?

Aw the astronaut glasses holder is such a sweet touch for a desk... and that shirt with the buffering icon sounds perfect for him. 20 years of emails with someone and she still sends gifts, thats real friendship fr.

Yes it was, for sure. Though it is not tech related, he still liked it. Yes it is perfect for him for sure. That is a long time, almost half my life!
