My daughter Tamiko had been busy in school, excited with Christmas coming.  All’s Tamiko could do is talk about Santa and what she would like to get everyone.

Today, Miko, my 7-year-old daughter brought home the gifts she bought at school…
Busy as usual during the 5 to 7 o’clock hours, we didn’t catch what she had done until a little later, but we could remember her laughter and telling us not to come into the living room because she was wrapping Christmas presents.

Later I went into the living room to see what she had put below the Christmas tree I saw presents to her Mommy and Daddy I smiled and started to walk away, I noticed another gift sitting on the entertainment center next to a picture.  I walked away with tears in my eyes and told my husband to come here and look at what she had done.

My daughter had given her Grandmother (Tutu) a Christmas present. 

The only thing is…her Grandmother passed away about 4 weeks ago.
