The Gift


The following is a letter my daughter Sarah (age 10) wrote to me and my husband:

Dear Mom and Dad,

I can't wait until Thanksgiving! Thank you for letting us go to Utah over the week. I am exited! Thank you for everything you have done for me. You did such a good job raising me so far. Thank you for taking me to the hotel on my tenth birthday. You've taught me to be a good kid. Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Your Daughter
Sarah

What a wonderful gift, not only that she gave us, but that the Lord gave her to us. He must put a lot of trust in us to raise such a wonderful girl!! Thank you Heavenly Father!

You have such a wonderfully sweet daughter! I hope my daughter can be half of what she is.
