The Postman Does Ring Twice

Hello my friends,  I am so excited today.  

I found my little Postman a few days

ago and I can show him to you.  

He is a little Hummel Postman.

Oh, how long I have waited for him.

More than 50 years have passed.

He isn't the one I wanted and was promised,

but I am ok and I am happy.

My sweet Aunt Carol lived in Germany in the early 1960's

When she came home she brought my Grandma the 

Hummel Postman.

It meant a lot to my Grandma.  Aunt Carol brought everyone

a Hummel, but not me.  She always told me that

when she died I could have the Hummel Postman

that she had given my Grandma. . . 

Well the years past, Aunt Carol died a few years ago.

But I never got the Hummel she had promised me.

So I went on the search. . .and I found him.

He has belonged to someone else for all these years,

Now he is mine.

My Aunt didn't need to give me any of her possessions.

I have the most beautiful memories of the time I spent with her.

Nothing can take the place of time and memories.  

I hope you are enjoying the last few days of October.
