Perhaps you've heard this story...
A lady had a circle of friends for whom she really wanted to buy Christmas presents. Time slipped away and it was so busy at work that she just wasn't able to get to the store to purchase those gifts. Time was running out.
Not too many days before Christmas she decided to give up on the gift idea and just buy everyone the same beautiful Christmas card. She went to the local gift store and hurriedly went through the now picked over stack of cards. She found a box of 50, just what she wanted. She didn't take time to read the message, she just noticed a beautiful cover on it and gold around it and a floral appearance on the front of the card and she thought, "That's perfect. So she signed them all, 'With all my love'."
As New Year's came and she had time to go back to look at the cards she didn't send, she was shocked to read the message inside. It said, in a little rhyme, "This Christmas card is just to say, a little gift is on its way."
