A Gleeful Surprise

I have been fantasizing about this "R" necklace ever since it was first shown worn by Ms. Rachel Berry on  Glee.

There was just something about it. I loved the swirly script styled initial and the fact the charm was connected to the necklace instead of just hanging off the chain. Rachel's "R" necklace had to be mine. . .in a "J" of course.  

I was thrilled to find the designer of this golden treasure, Ryan Ryan. Each necklace is hand designed in the initial of your choosing and available in 10k yellow or white gold for $149.

When asked by my parents for some suggestions for what I might like for my birthday, this little beauty was on the top of my list.

Inside my parent's birthday card there was a hint about my gift. "We hope it brings you much Glee." 

My heart was racing! Could it be?

When I pulled the box out of the very festive birthday balloon gift bag, a little red crushed velvet box was waiting for me. As I slowly opened it and saw my very own "J" necklace inside I squealed like a little girl.

My parents were correct with their sentiments inside their card. This truly was a Gleeful surprise!!!
