It was over two months before Christmas when 9-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bike.Her old bike was just too old ang it often needed repairs.As Christmas came nearer ,her dream for a bike seemed to disappear,for she didn't mention it again.
Then much to our surprise,on December 24,she said she really wanted a bike more than anything else.Now we didn't know what to do.It was just too late.It was just too late.We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing children's presents,parents' presents,
and also friends till midnight.So there was no time to take to buy the
"right bike" for our little girl.Thinking that we were parents who would make
their child unhappy,we felt guilty and sad.
Suddenly my husband had an idea."What if I make a little bike out of
clay and write a note that she could trade in the model bike for a real
one after Christmas?" So he spent the next five hours carefully working with clay to make a
small bike.
On Christmas morning,we were so excited for Almie Rose to open the little box
with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note.She opened and read the
note loudly.She looked at me and said,"So,does this mean I can trade
in this bike for a real one?" Smiling,I said,"Yes."
Almie Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied,"I would never trade in this beautiful bike that Daddy made me.I prefer to keep it rather than get a real bike."At that moment,
we would have moved the God to buy her every bike on the earth.
2个多月前,九岁的Almie Rose 告诉我和她父亲,她想要一辆新自行车.她的旧自行车太旧了,经常需要修理.圣诞节快到了,她梦想有一辆自行车的愿望看来要落空了,因为她没有再提起了.
而出乎我们意料的是,在12月24日这天,她比起任何一样东西来,她更想要一辆自行车.现在我们不知道该怎么办.已经太晚了.真的太晚了.我们忙着准备圣诞大餐,包装孩子们的礼物,父母的礼物,和朋友们的礼物直到深夜.因此没有时间为我们的小姑娘买这样一辆自行车.想到我们作为父母要让孩子不开心了.感到很内疚和伤心.
突然,我的丈夫想出了一个办法."如果我用泥塑做出一个小自行车再写张纸条告诉她她可以将这个模型车卖了在圣诞节后用这些钱买一辆新车怎么样?"于是他接下来5个小时里小心的用泥塑了一辆小自行车.
在圣诞节这天早上,我们激动的等着Almie Rose 打开这个装着漂亮的红白相间的泥塑车和纸条的小盒子.她打开来并大声的读着纸条.她看看我说,"是不是说我可以用这辆车换一辆真的?"我笑着说"当然"
Almie Rose 眼里含着泪说"我不会把爸爸送给我的漂亮的小自行车卖掉的.我宁愿珍藏它而不要一辆真的自行车."在那一刻,我们就象感动了上帝,为她买到了她想要的世界上任何一辆自行车.
