I received a pleasant surprise delivery from UPS today: When I looked at the from-address on the label I realized what it must be: A “reward” packet from the good people at Relay.fm and St. Jude: A box of prizes for me, as their way of thanking me for raising a little bit of money ($1700, not so little? but not that much) for childhood cancer awareness month back in September.

Obviously, I didn’t raise the money just so I’d get an award, and I’d have said that I didn’t want one if I was asked (sorry, maybe they did ask and I forgot that I said “yes, please”?). But, I have to admit, this has really warmed my heart and made my day, getting these gifts. Thank you Stephen, Myke, and to everyone involved at St. Jude. It’s great to see the circle of giving continue, and this does motivate me to participate again next year 🙂
