We Ballicai had a wonderful surprise today -- we got a package in the mail from our friend Adan! Inside were four beautiful postcards in honor of Adan's tenth Gotcha Day -- two postcards which I'd selected, two which MaoMao had selected -- and a lovely bookmark and a beautiful toy ball!

Here I am, examining the ball and the bookmark. Mom loves the bookmark -- she's a reader and will use it in her books -- and wow, that ball looks like such a fun toy!

And here I am, thanking Adan. I appreciate you -- you and Michico are such wonderful friends!

And... Adan tagged me for the Green Christmas Meme! This will be the first Christmas Meme I've ever done.
What is your favorite Christmas gift? -- Stinky goodness.
What is your best memory of Christmas? -- Snuggling in my Mom's and Dad's laps.
Depending upon where you live, do you have a hot or cold Christmas? -- On the chilly side, but not extremely cold.
Would you prefer to try the opposite weather at least just once? -- Why not, just to see what it would be like.
What do you prefer in a tree? Fake or real? -- Real ones are easier to climb! *giggle*
What is your favorite carol? -- "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by J. S. Bach.
What is your favorite Christmas dinner? -- Turkey, turkey, and turkey! Mmmmm.
Do you wear a Santa hat at Christmas? -- Alas, my hat-wearing skills aren't very good. Mom is helping me work on them, though, because I want to wear the Yankees cap which my darling Mickeybear sent me.
Have you ever seen Santa delivering gifts? -- Not yet, but I'll keep an eye out!
And I'll do an open tag -- anykitty who wants to, please play along! *smile*
