29-Day Giving Challenge

Day 2, October 2nd

Today’s gift was the book of 29 Gifts. I gave this book to my counselor as she has not yet read it however recommended it to me from other sources … as you can see the book made a difference as I would not be writing this if I had not read it. I had lunch today with my Mother in Law, unlike others my Mother in Law and I have a great relationship. As I was telling her about my gift giving before I could tell her today’s gift she grabbed my hands and said today’s gift can be you having brunch with me because I love to have brunch with you! It makes me feel good to know that she has “missed” me, you see with my depression there was a time that I would have to have 24-7 watch and Mama D (my pet name for her) came to the rescue! She would be at our house at seven am when my husband Darren aka Bubba would leave for work and I would be her charge for the day. Some days were easy and others hard, however our friendship has not been damaged and we remain great friends :)

The gift of giving the book to your counselor was a wonderful gift...but your gift of the relationship with your mother in law is priceless. What a blessing  you two have each other.
