I got a nice note in the mail yesterday. It didn't come in the usual way, you know, in an envelope with a stamp. Instead it was just a little note, slipped into my mailbox. Here's what it said,
"Dear Johanna Garth,
I am so sorry that I didn't have a envelope. I read your book and I am an interested and excited fan. It's so amazing I wish I could call you mom. In fact, I'm lost. Can you take care of me? Your newest daughter and biggest fan.
Zoey"
Nice note, right! I wonder who this mysterious Zoey person could be? All I know is Child #1 was very vested in making sure I respond to poor, lost Zoey as soon as possible.
Hope your weekend is filled with mysterious surprises. Speaking of surprises, make sure to stop by on Monday. I've got a big announcement to make that has me spinning in excited circles (and Mom, if you're reading this, no I'm not pregnant!)

That is a nice surprise!
I'd be happy if my weekend is devoid of not-so-nice surprises. This fall my daughter has endured a close encounter with a metal pole (bloody nose), my other daughter's had two ear infections, and I got to hang out in the ER for a long Sunday morning with a kidney stone. I take a nice, uneventful weekend, please!
Oh, oh. Tell me, tell me!
Thats cool. As long as you don't find Zoey creeping under the window-seal. I have yet to get fan mail, but i'm sure it will happen at some point.
I could really use some mystery in my life right about now. (=
I love fun surprises like that! Very cool. Just found you through the blogfest. Looking forward to your announcement. Happy weekend!
Tamara-here's hoping for a nice calm weekend for you.
Sarah-I'm so excited about it, I can't wait until Monday (but I will anyway) :)
SB, I'm sure you will too!
Jo, a little mystery, a little spice...it all keeps things interesting.
Tracy Jo, thanks for stopping by!
Hi, Johanna! Glad I stopped by (late, late on a Saturday night) and glad you were inspired to post this! It's one thing to impress a total stranger with your work; it's another thing entirely to impress a family member.
The second is much, much harder. Your daughter is obviously a real sweetie!
Interesting fan mail! I wonder who Zoey is.
And I wonder about your surprise. I definitely would have though u were pregnant...lol.
