Day 59 ~ Fulfillment
My son gave me a belated birthday present. Yesterday, the birthday
balloon that had been roaming around the house for ten days, usually
occupying the middle space between floor and ceiling, decided to make a
break for it the moment we opened the door. With the outside air, as it
was, much colder, before we could take action, my balloon rose up to the
sky. This morning, my son greeted me in bed with two happy-birthday
balloons and a note attached: "Happy Belated Birthday! Sorry for not
getting you a present until today, but here it is. I love you very much,
more than anyone. You are who helps me when I have problems, who
teaches me principles and moral values, and you are who gave me all that
I have. I love you! Kisses and hugs." Priceless.
