Female Netizen Shares Son’s Heartwarming Christmas Exchange Gift Story
A female netizen recently shared her gratitude after her son received several notebooks as part of an exchange gift during a Christmas party.
Wendy Quiambao Abaca, a Facebook user, recently shared a photo of the exchange gift her child received at a Christmas party in school. The post garnered various reactions from the online community.
Before the Christmas party, Abaca’s youngest child expressed a simple request, new notebooks. She happily agreed and promised to buy five notebooks for the special occasion.
The night before the party, the child was so excited about the upcoming exchange gift event. The child had two items on the wishlist, eagerly expecting the surprises at their Christmas party.
After the Christmas party, the child’s face shows a hint of disappointment regarding the received gift. It seems that the child had expected something from the wishlist but received seven notebooks.
Wendy’s husband tried to uplift the kid’s mood by highlighting that God had given him seven notebooks instead of the requested five from his mom.
Abaca emphasizes the need to teach our children to appreciate whatever blessings come their way. Sometimes, what we receive may not match our expectations, but Wendy believes that it’s essential to be grateful for even the smallest things.
The couple reminds everyone that the Lord provides the best for us, even if it doesn’t align with our initial expectations.
