[Highland Park] missing box (didn't seem to go through the first time I sent it)
by Alison Bogle 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hello Neighbors, My grandmother sent my toddler a big box full of Easter goodies that was never delivered to our house. My hope is that it was dropped off at the wrong house and in all of the rush around this season someone has it but just hasn't made it to the post office to return it. If this is the case, please let us know. A 2 1/2 year old has been checking our front porch every day and it is starting to drive me crazy ;-) Thanks!
