ReplyDelete6. Denn bought a silver swan pin for his mother at the Booty Boutique. He bought it for her because his mother loved swans and had a whole household full of swan merchandise as well Denn knew that it had been a long time since his mother had recieved a gift while he was in a gift-giving mood.
