Tonight at Church, My husband told a story about a child having a Birthday.
The father asked what would the child like to have for his Birthday?
The child said he wanted a "ball".
The father asked what kind of a ball?
The child said that depended on if the father would have time to play with him or not?
If the father would be able to play with him, he wanted a football. If not, he wanted a soccer ball.
The point is, the child really wasnt concerned about the "gift",,,,,,
he was more concerned with the "giver".
It made me think of my own daughter,,,,,,,,I have seen that so many times!
Like in my previous post, I am SURE my daughter REALLY didnt care about giving me a foot massage,,,,,but she wanted to spend TIME with me!
I know that SO many times, she doesnt care about helping me clean, or watching something on TV that I want to see,,,,,,but she wants to spend time with me.
So she'll do whatever I want to do!!

One more thing I forgot to add in my previous post,,,,
My daughter loves to read to me!!!
A couple of weeks ago she was reading CHARLOTTE'S WEB.
So one morning on the way to school she read to me.
OF COURSE, The part she read to me was when the stupid spider dies!!! UGH!!
Tears started streaming down my face,,,,,,She said "MOMMY!!"
I said "I am sorry, that part always makes me cry."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She's been reading DIARY OF A WIMPY KID to me,,,,,
Those books are FUNNY!!! LOL
They always make us laugh!!!! Good Times!
