Yep, the Gift is There

I had this nice position in my fourth or fifth (and therefore last) blitz game this morning.

White to move

      I finished with 5.Qh3# The pawn move works as well.

      At first, during the game, I was looking at Qc2+ with the idea of following with Qxc5, and then I noticed that I could win a lot more than the pawn.
