Darlene (Mickey7811): A Thank You as Big as Your Heart

[Eeyore's Pal]

Most of you know Darlene (Mickey7811), either in person, or through the boards.

I have never heard her say an unkind word about a fellow pintrader, or take sides in any of the "hot" topics that sometimes dominate our threads.

Darlene moves among us spreading good pin-karma like pearls. She unhesitatingly hands pins to kids, newbies, and anyone who looks like they need a little "lift."

So I guess I shouldn't have been that surprised when this box arrived at our house this week. Darlene said she was sending my kids "a couple of pins."

Of course, my kids were struck speechless (and that is <b>really</b> an amazing feat!) when they opened the box to find the Donald and Goofy from the Cruise Event set.

<i><font color=blue>Darlene - </i>On behalf of my boys, thank you so much! This was a most wonderful and unexpected surprise. Your generousity has touched all of us. </font>

RobYn, I know what you mean, a couple of weeks ago I get an LBE in the mail. I wasn't expecting any trades, so I was perplexed..... I open it up and there is the Disneyland Castle that opens up to reveal Sleeping Beauty and Prince Phillip.

Knowing that I am a Sleeping Beauty fan, and that you don't get many SB pins here is Cindy territory , she sent it to me when she saw it.

She is definately someone very special in our "pin world".

There are so many special people here. Darlene is just full of good karma. Just think of all the pins she will find on her trip. So here's my virtual CTT for you too!! Way to go!

Geez,

Thank you for all the kind things you said about me - that is so nice.

Just remember all the nice things you have done for me.

That is what this pin trading thing is all about.

And she is MORE then worthy of the virtual CTT pin, and the real ones she has been awarded down here....

She is what pin trading is all about...kind of makes up for the Sharks, doesn't it..
