Present time!

So, here it is, birthday time. The chance to ask for anything I want.

I always ask for a horse. It's the only thing I want. But year after year, I get presents that are not a horse.

It was the same with Christmas. Boy, my parents, especially my Mom, had the most incredible imagination, coming up with gifts I would like, even though they weren't what I really wanted or asked for. (But God was watching it all, and He had a plan in mind...)

I have to hand it to them, I had a very very happy childhood, really what would be called idyllic.
