Later in the day, cooking the evening
meal, the 5 years son stood beside her
mother very still.
When the mom turned, she nearly knocked him down.
"Move out of the way," she said with a frown.
The little boy walked away, his little heart
broken.
The mom didn't realize how harshly she had
spoken.
While she lay awake that night in her bed,
God's still small voice came to her and said,
"While dealing with a stranger, you use
courtesy, but the children you love, you
seem to abuse them. Go and look on the
kitchen floor, You'll find some flowers there by
the door. Those are the flowers he brought for
you. He picked them himself: pink, yellow
and blue.
He stood very quietly not to spoil the
surprise. You never saw the tears that filled his
little eyes."
By this time, she felt very small, And now
tears began to fall. She quietly went and knelt
by his bed;
"Please wake up, little one," She said,
"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
the boy smiled, "I found them out by the tree.
I picked them because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like them, especially the blue."
the mom said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way
I acted today; I should not have yelled at you
that way."
the son said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay. I love you
anyway,"
mum replied, "Son, I love you too, and I do
like the flowers, especially the blue."
MORAL:
If your parent are too harsh to you, don't feel
neglected.
They really love us and want to shape our
future.
