Every Thursday morning, Daddy takes Makayla out to breakfast before school. They usually eat at the hospital, the donut shop (Mel-O-Cream), or at Hardees.
This morning, Makyala wanted to go to Hardees. I asked her what she was going to get and she excitedly said "the raisin thing"! I told her that I loved the cinnamon raisin biscuits. Yum!
After daddy picks her up from school, I usually call her and ask her how school was. Today, she said she needed to show me something, so I told her to have daddy bring her by mommy's work on the way to Brenda's.
Thinking that she was going to show me the stamp she earned today, I was definitely surprised when she had something else to share with me.
She proudly handed over to me a little box from Hardees. I opened up the box and this is what I saw -
She had saved me her left over cinnamon raisin biscuit! With my chin kind of quivering (because her sweetness melted my heart), I looked up to see a humongous smile on her face and her eyes beaming. I gave her a big kiss and thanked her for thinking of me. I told her that she is such a kind girl and that she makes me so happy. Still smiling and nodding her head, she told me that she put a fruit snack in there, too, because she knows that I like fruit snacks.
OH, goodness, I love her!
Her heart is so good.
