My grandson and I used to go out to play when he was little. I always came into the house with a pocketful of pebbles...his gifts to me! I always accepted them with a smile. Those pebbles were gifts from his heart and represented the LOVE he felt for me. Once inside, the pebbles were stored in baggies and put away for future reference.
He's 11 now, and I don't get pebbles from him anymore. But I still get the love!
