For no reason at all (that I know of), my sweet li’l sister, Jill the Pill, sent me an envelope with some presents in it. Receiving an envelope in the real mail (email isn’t real) is always so lovely. And when it contains presents – that’s even lovelier!
The first present is an adorable hand-made bookmark. Jill has always been clever with words and with crafts. And it makes me so happy to find this cherished item between the pages of my book every time I open it.
See what I mean … she’s so clever (and I’m pretty sure she’s joking about her hygiene concerns).
There was also another item in the envelope. My daughter and I are trying to figure out what it is. It’s quite small and it’s magnetic and it’s ornate. We’re sure it’s an ornament of some sort…
Is it a hair ornament or some sort of ear clip? My daughter models both options:
Of course, Maddie thought it was for her. She likes to look pretty.
Elvis thought she needed it in her cage – something new to keep her from going insane, staring at the same bars of captivity, day after day after day:
We came up with a few other ideas, but really, we’re quite stumped:
Thank you Jill the Pill! But next time, perhaps some instructions or illustrations would be helpful.










Seems to me that you have completely coverd the water front with possible uses. How could there be anything other than what you have already covered? Well, perhaps there could be a couple more wild ideas.
Guess I wasn’t thinking in my above comment. Naturally, it’s for books printed with metal pages. ( I didn’t check my spelling very thoroughly either.)
Oh my gosh! The first thing is just a card, not a bookmark, and as for the magnetic thingy-bobber, well, are you kidding? Do you really not know what it is? If you really don’t you’re going to feel really silly when you finally do
P.S. You’re welcome. xoxo
OK, I’m feeling silly. What is it Jillawicious???
I will send you and Grandma some and see if you can figure it out, although, you probably will have by the time they get there
I got the same gift in the mail and I knew what the magnet was right away! Cuz I’m cool like that. Except my poem said “roses are red, blood is too. You’d better call me or I’ll bite you” or something like that…
