My parents, brother, sister, and her family came for Christmas. It was nice treat since my brother doesn't often make it up here at Christmas. So we were all together this year.
When my brother arrived, Austin realized he did not have a gift for his uncle. This concerned him greatly, and so I told him he could make him a gift. He arrived downstairs shortly after with his brand-new art kit. This was his main present; something he cherishes because he loves to draw. I thought he wanted to open the kit to get out the supplies, so he could make a gift. I was wrong. He was asking me for paper, so he could wrap the gift to give to his uncle. This was such a loving gesture!!
When his uncle found out what Austin wanted to do, I could see he was so very touched at the selflessness of this child. He truly received a gift in that thought!
Of course, he would not let Austin give his gift. Austin would not let that be, so he kept searching the house for something that he could give his uncle. Finally, he gave him the booklight he had received for Christmas - another very special gift. He is a very loving child - a real encourager!
