On this week, I had a birthday (February 11), and I received a big parcel from my dear Russian friend Nika.

The parcel included many kinds of lovely gifts: a crystal angel bell made in Gus-Khrustalny (handmade Russian rock crystal), Matryoshka doll, a wooden scoop (traditional Khokhloma folk art), a tasty Russian chocolate called «Бабаевский», a lollipop (lol), a refrigerator magnets with a beautiful images, a keychain (a little Matryoshka doll), a Russian doll with a national costume, and even Russian stamps (when I was a little boy, I collected stamps, and she knew that).

Oh my God, what an amazing and wonderful gifts! I was really touched when I saw all those gifts. My dear, thank you for making my birthday so happy and special in many ways! Crystal angel bell is the best – it is really lovely! As I have said many times before, you really are an angel sent to me by God. And once again, you made my day!

Большое спасибо, ангел мой! Милая моя, ты всегда в моих мыслях. Я люблю тебя! (^—^)

Happy Valentine's Day to all my friends, and thank you for being here! Love above all!
