Not As Expected

My daughter has been saving her pennies over the past year, and we used it to order a refurbished iPod Touch last week. She’s eagerly awaiting the arrival of a lovely brown box, stalking the door, hoping to ambush the UPS guy.

Yesterday, both the UPS and FEDEX trucks rolled down our street, depositing neat cardboard boxes on the front stoop. She dashed eagerly outside to retrieve them, only to find out that they contained back-ordered school uniforms, and her youth bible for religion class.

Boy. That was NOT a happy face.

    I can totally see it…heck, I can feel her pain when I see a package on my doorstep and I think it’s something I ordered…only to be a package for my husband or kids!
