Bought a book today . . . for my daughter

I love being a Dad, well, most of the time.  I have three man-cubs.  16, 15 and 10.

I simply wanted to share that it’s fun being a father. I was in Border’s for lunch today. My favorite post-launch stopping grounds.  A cup of coffee.  Browsing the new hardbacks.  By the way, never buy a paperback, they’re magazines.  Always buy the real thing in a hard back spine.  But I digress.

Anyway, I’m browsing through the titles. I stumble upon Chosen by a Horse. Knowing that my 16 year old daughter would love this book, I promptly walked to the counter, plopped down my 20% discount card, and walked out with said-book in hand.  No special occasion or anything.  Just because I knew she’d love it.
Knowing how much I enjoyed buying that book for Rebecca makes me reflect on how God must love giving his children good gifts too.

What gift did God surprise you with today?
