(no subject)

I was reminiscing a few weeks ago (as I am wont to do around here) about my childhood home and mentioned (as I am wont to do) the memory of the purple glass doorknob on the garage door.  The only keepsake I wanted from my childhood home - but when Bailey went to get it, it was gone - stolen at some point.

Nicole spent hours combing ebay and weeks waiting for shipping for this surprise:

She had to assemble two doorknob sets - buying each knob separately.  She didn't know which doorknob type was in my memory, so she bought faceted and smooth and each side of the doorknob is slightly different.  She's going to put them on whatever doors I want.

The one on the left is pretty much exactly what I remembered. Be still, heart.
