June 7, 2007A Thoughtful Gesture

Filed under: This Week in the World by merylrunion |

I received a lovely surprise this week. Peter, an Australasian gentleman who received a Pippi giraffe for sharing a success story spontaneously sent me a photo of himself with his award.

I was touched by his thoughtfulness and delighted to see him with his giraffe. You can see him too here, and learn more about the I Said It Strong Award. I invite more of you to send in your communication success stories, and send me a photo once you receive your giraffe.

  1. You contacted me a while back about where to send my Pippi. I thought that it was as pictured on the newsletter – a yellow circular object with a picture of a giraffe. I had no idea it was actually a stuffed giraffe until I saw the picture!

  3. Peter…thanks. I do know the difference between Australia and New Zealand (love them both) but I still conflate them sometimes. Thanks for the correction.
