And then, after weeks of waiting, it finally arrived.

It is such a nice experience to come home from work and have a package waiting for you there. I tend to know what’s coming, but there is just something about walking up and tossing the box under my arm as I clumsily wedge the door open to get inside. Setting my things down and finding my pocket knife, I enjoy the satisfaction of cutting the tape and opening the flaps to see what has arrived. All the better when it’s a package that has come from far away, as Albert is in the midst of experiencing.
