Things like this just never happen to me..

Dear Katherine!
You are my sunshine,
my only sunshine,
you make me happy
when skies are grey
you'll never know dear
how much I love you..
This is the most amazing thing anyone has ever done for me!
Thank-You dear friend for brightening up my otherwise miserable day today...
