Girls Write Out
Wednesday, October 01, 2008

Today my daughter gave me a present. It was a book. No ordinary book, mind you. It was a book of memories.  The pages are filled with memories snapped into pictures of our children and grandchildren. Beneath the pictures she wrote a narrative that captured the moments. The final page was a picture of my daughter and me with the quote, "Her children will rise up and call her blessed. We love you."

Needless to say, I cried like a baby.

My kids know I love gifts that capture family moments. They sometimes make fun of my sappy self, but as long as they give me memorable gifts, I'm good with that.

I don't scrapbook, but my daughter does and I reap the benefits. Some people aren't into those types of gifts. That's okay, too. But everyone has those memorable gifts that stand out from the others.

So share a time when you received a gift that meant a lot to you. It may seem like a simple gift to someone else, but it was special to you because . . . .
