"My present"

I was doing the dishes the other day and Kyla called me frantically! MOM, MOM - come here quick you have a present!!!

I was thinking that it was going to be one of the several random "presents" that the kids had wrapped with crinkled paper of a variety of things around the house. So I asked her to hold on a sec because my hands were wet.

She got impatient and called again: MOM, MOM - please hurry you have a present here waiting for you!

So I dried my hands and to my wonderful surprise at that moment, I was given the absolute best gift I have ever received to date. My sweet daughter had put a bow on her tummy and gave herself to me for Christmas. She even included her brand new stickers that her daddy had just bought for her!
