"I'm sending you something in the mail, keep an eye out for it" This was a message from my bestie from Saskatchewan. I had no idea what she was sending but it wasn't entirely uncommon for us to send eachother a little something so I eagerly awaited my package. When it arrived, it felt like Christmas morning as I tore open the envelope, followed by squeals of delight! But this time the squeals weren't coming from the boys, they were coming from me!!

When I was little my male classmates answered the question "what do you want to be when you grow up?" with answers like fireman and policeman, maybe even a doctor, but usually a community helper of some sort.
