When a stranger calls

Well, hey there! There's no pictures for me to do with this post but I had to tell you how my Valentine's Day went. After I finished doing my hair for the day I wen in my room and found a big box of chocolates and the Keira Knightley version of Pride and Prejudice from mom and dad. YAY!!! Love that movie! Well, the rest of the day was about the same as any other. One of my girlfriends decided to be the "boyfriend" of our group and brought all the girls small boxes of chocolate kisses. Yummy. I didn't have practice after school so I got to come straight home. Since I didn't have a date for Valentine's (I wonder why...) I was babysitting. (The funny thing was, so were most of my friends. we're pretty pathetic) So the evening was going good with the two boys I was watching. I got to play Rock Band for a while which is pretty rad. I had just finished changing diapers and was wrestling around when my phone started to ring. I looked and the number was 215-877-1780. I had no idea what number that was and decided just to answer. A lady asked for Christine (she had a weird accent) I thought "great now telelmarketers have my cell number" I said yeah thats me. She then said "I have a message for you (my mind begins to race) from Elder Bingham (oh great he's been in an accident, this is the mission president's wife telling me he's been in an accident) He wants to tell you happy Valentine's Day and that he loves you." i just froze for a second and then was like oh my goodness. This is somebody in his ward. I told her "Thank you so much, oh my goodness, thank you." "Is there anything you'd like me to tell him?" "Tell him I love him too and Happy Valentine's back." It got an awkward pause (while the one year old i was watching rolled across my head) Then she said ok, I said thank you and we hung up. I don't know who it was, and probably won't ever talk to her again. Who knows if that is some kind of infraction on mission rules. It was 10 their time so I'm pretty sure he wasn't there. But who cares. It was the best Valentine's present ever, and from a stranger. There's a story for you to tell your friends and the YW in your ward about your crazy sister and her missionary.
