A happy surprise x2!

So I opened an email today from NorthRidge Publishing, and look!


I had no clue that I had made it to the cover!  Such shock, and delight :)

One other thing happened today that was just incredible... I am slightly addicted to this silly iphone app called "Tiny Tower".   Basically you build floors of this building, some residential, and most stores.  I have 110 "people" that live in my building, yes this is sounding incredibly dorky, but hear me out ;)
I was sitting on my moms couch as she was on the phone with her brother, and I get a new resident to my building, and the name was "Evelyn Martin", which is my maternal Grandmothers name.  I sit there a bit stunned, as really, what are the chances?  Then I click on the resident where it shows their info, which again is rather silly as it's just a game and who cares, but sure enough the character has the exact same birthday as my Grandma too!!  Way too much of a coincidence in my books.  I really think my Grandma was popping by from heaven to let us know she is thinking about us/me.  It made my day!

Here is a screen shot from my iphone:

Evelyn Martin, Aug 17...  
I miss and love you too Grandma!
