Part 2 Winner Chicken Dinner Best Present I Never Got

Part II Best present i never actually recieved So as i was telling you earlier in part 1 My mum sent her brother to the shop to buy me my birthday present Long story they haven't been close since she got sick recently So when she asked and he went the shops to buy it for me When i only just got the 1 present and card from my mum I could and honestly did for a second think where is the 1 from you Until my brain engaged and this i thought The greatest and most thoughtful i never got was that Because i know how disingenuous and easy it would be to pick another card and bottle up and give it to me As apposed to how much thought must go in to Not buying a token gift instead And that is why and when i say That is the best present i never actually got

Many gifts given, over time are cast out, and a token gift is no gift at all, this way however you can remember this Birthday, when you got the best present that you never actually got! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
