I wanted to 2 my thanks for the time and effort put in by the 3 , But Ive never seen him or her, so we went to a local grocery and bought a gift card that would leave with a 4 and a smile card the next time that I passed by.We also ran to Walmart and 5 a few $ 10 gift cards along with some note cards and our other 6 .
