It’s been a difficult year. My daughter, my dog and I lost our home. We’ve depended upon the kindness of others to provide temporary shelter.
At one point, I felt as though my daughter might be better off without me. If she were placed with a rich family, she would have a good life. I was unable to provide a good life for her. However, she never complains, although she has every right to. She went from having a beautifully decorated bedroom of her own, to having temporary shelter.
I dug through the change at the bottom of my purse and bought her a lollipop at the store today. She’d had her eye on it the entire time we were in line to pay for our purchase. It was an old-fashioned one that cost $1.00. It was the end of the month and I only had $1.35 left to my name. However, she’d been such a good girl, and I really thought she deserved a special treat.
I reached into my purse and counted out enough for the lollipop. You would have thought I gave her the key to the magic kingdom! “Thank you, Mommy! You’re the best mommy!”
All at once, the cloud of despair that had hung over me lifted. I was ready to continue my journey, willing to face whatever challenges may lie ahead.
| A.I really couldn’t afford it. |
| B.I became upset at my loss. |
| C.I could see tears shining in her eyes. |
| D.I wouldn’t have any money coming until the first of next month. |
E.She screamed with joy as she hugged me with all her strength.
F.I knew without a doubt in that very instant that I was the family that my little girl needed.
G.She doesn’t complain that I can’t afford to give her the extra things she would love to have.
