Found: June 27th, 2015 (Day before my birthday)
in Citrus Heights, CA at the Sunrise Mall exit near the theater in a tree.
As we walked into the mall about 3 hours before I found the heart, I was telling my son about how when I was a child we would send off balloons with our info attached. Then whoever would find the balloon would mail it back and tell us about themselves!!
How strange that I would find a quilted heart just three hours later!! Story of my life. Weird coincidences at every turn. We just finished watching a movie with a sad ending when I see this heart in the bushes. Thanks for brightening my day.
