A Gift From the Heart: A Grandson’s Unexpected Response

“I didn’t want you to see me cry, Grandma. I saw the album last night and couldn’t stop reading it. This is the best gift anyone has ever given me.”

Just then, I heard footsteps on the porch. My daughter and grandson were standing there, both smiling. He stepped inside, wrapped me in a tight hug, and whispered, “I’m taking this with me wherever I go. So I never forget where I come from—or who loves me most.”

In that moment, I realized something simple but powerful:
Not every gift shines on the outside. Some take a night, a memory, and a quiet heart to be truly opened.

And every act of love, no matter how small, eventually finds its way back to you.
