carol--very sweet and heartwarming.

Awww...this is so sweet! I love it.

You tug on the heartstrings just right.

Thanks so much everyone. I'm really flattered. I've become obsessed with Sleeping Beauty lately so Josef more on the brain than usual.

Yes, for those of you who know me well that's possible.

Just lovely Carol

Thanks coco.

wow.. I didn't expect this premise from the title, but you're absolutely right. The real gifts that Josef would appreciate would be the ones money couldn't buy. Yes, well done cassy.

Thanks Luxe. This was my first and only thought after I read the challenge prompt. I think it's so wonderful all the different ideas that came from this challenge.

So sweet and lovely! It went straight to my heart!!!!

Awwwww, poor Josef.

I thought I had commented on this already when I read it the first time. This was lovely, cassy! Simple and heartfelt. An unexpected gift, indeed!

Phoenix and MLC - Thanks so much. I love my Josef and I really enjoyed coming up with this.

Thanks so much for reading.

There's nothing like that kind of gift, that amazing feeling of getting something LONG after you thought you'd lost all hope... and it comes back to you. This is a really special story.

Alle - I have a Sarah soft spot and I really felt that diary was the best thing he ever received. Thanks for reading.
