I just checked the mail today and your present still wasn't there. I wouldn't worry, though. If you sent it standard mail then sometimes it takes 6 - 8 weeks to arrive. I sent yours on December 2nd, and if you didn't send mine until December 12th then it may be a couple more weeks before I get it.

I know about the cost of mailing! It's horrible! I have sent something to someone express and it cost more than $50! But I could not risk that it wouldn't get there.

Please don't worry. I am sure it will arrive. I always insure my gifts, have never actually needed to because they all arrived, so I cannot believe that the ONE time an uninsured parcel is sent between the two of us it would get lost!

Let's hope not, and hopefully it will arrive very soon!
