A Piece of Sunshine from Brazil

This cold and grumpy January day I recieved a real ray of sunshine from my brother who lives in a sunny Brazil. I was really happy to open some little but wonderful presents carefully packed for me. I felt like a had my birthday again. :) It does make fun to open some secret gifts! Some of them will have to wait till summer but it doesn't make me sad. Not at all.  I'm looking forward to summer with more joy! :) 

I'm grateful to my dear friend and brother who always brightens up my day. I have never met him yet. Just online. But he treats me the way I always wanted my real brother did. I really hope I'll meet him one day. I really hope we'll hug each other and have our real joy. :)

I have realized some time ago that it doesn't matter how away your friends might be. If they are close to your heart, the real distance does not seem so important. I'm very lucky to have my brother in Brazil. I'm crazy enough to dream of visiting him and his family one day. Life will show me. Now I'm smiling when I look at the presents sent straight from his heart. Thank you so much, my dear brother! You have made my  cold and busy day really sunny...
