Recently, I saw amazing sculptures of a few therapy dogs in 'Paws for People' Facebook page. 'Paws for People' is a group in which we volunteer together with our dogs. I contacted the sculptor and asked him to make two sculptures of our dogs - Rookie and Holly. I was not aware that my wife had also contacted him and asked him to make a sculpture of our dog Holly for me!
Tonight while opening presents, my wife asked me to open mine. I recognized the type of a box because it was the same one as my Rookie and Holly came in. I opened it up and was extremely confused because when I picked mine up the sculptor asked me not to open it as it had a surprise inside. There was Holly in clay. I had 2 more boxes with Rookie and Holly in them. I got pretty upset when I realized I had 2 Holly sculptures. However, I found the attached letter from the sculptor and he didn't spoil the surprise to either one of us and his explanation settled well for both of us.
