Today at RE Katie made a Mother’s Day gift for me. She was so excited and insisted that I didn’t peek in the bag. When we got home, I came in first, leaving her in the garage. She came in a few minutes later, crying uncontrollably. I asked her what was wrong, and she said that somehow she had ended up with the wrong gift. She now had a picture frame that said, “I love Mama” in someone else’s messy handwriting. To say she was devastated is not an exaggeration.
With a quick text to her teacher and a trip back up to church, we were able to remedy the situation. Her whole body relaxed when she had her proper gift bag in hand. Can’t wait to see my special frame next week!
