Mother’s Day is close!

As the Mother’s day closes by I remember an incident that happened nearly a year ago. It was birthday of a friend. I was still confused what gift shall I get for him? At last I got into a Gift shop nearby, so that I could choose one from the collection. There were not many customers out of which a kid nearly eight or nine years old caught my attention. I observed him as he was choosing a Mother’s day card. He picked up a card at last and very happily went up to the counter and poured out everything that he had in his pocket to pay for the card. The shopkeeper counted the change and said that it was not enough to buy that card. The kid was upset and decided to get a smaller card. I was somewhat moved by the sight and decided to help the kid to buy that card. So, I went up to the counter and offered the extra amount and he should buy that card. The Kid refused and replied, “I will get a smaller card, I will not borrow from any one to buy a card for my mother, if you can afford for this then get it for your mother. She will like it.”
I did not say a word and bought the card and he was right. My mother really liked it. That made my day.

The little kid had something to teach me. See if this story has something for you too. If you have not gifted any thing to your mother for some time, then do not miss this opportunity.
