“Happy Birthday!” David awoke to the voice of his mother. “It’s time to get up and drive out to 35 grandfather’s farm.”
“Why do we have to go there? And how long is the drive?” he asked with a sad look in his eyes.
“About two hours…and don’t worry, we’ ll bring your birthday 36 with us.” His mother walked away and left him to get ready.
In less than an hour, David and his parents were on their way. 37 of what the colorful birthday packages had inside filled his head. He was 38 that one had the baseball glove he wanted, while others would have amazing things that he had dreamed about. Thinking of his grandfather, David 39 what his birthday present from him might be.
“Since my grandfather has a large farm, he must have a lot of money, and the bigger his present for me will be,” David said to himself.
Finally they 40 . Hugging his grandfather, David excitedly shouted, “I’ve missed you! You know, today’s my birthday. Did you get me a present?”
“I have missed you, too. And I have a very 41 present for you.”
Placing a small box in David’s hand, he quietly said, “This is a very important gift. I hope you will treasure it as 42 as I have.”
David looked at the small box, thinking money or jewels might be inside…. When he opened the box, David was 43 to see only a stone. It was a very beautiful stone, but was it valuable?
Grandfather spoke more slowly than before, “David, when your grandma and I were first married, we had very little money. She wanted to give me something special for my birthday, so she found this beautiful rock and polished(打磨)it day and night 44 it shined. It was the greatest gift I ever 45 because it came from your grandma’s heart. Now, I want you to have it because it comes from my heart.”
David held the stone in his hand and 46 the love of his grandfather. “This is a wonderful gift…thank you, Grandfather.” He knew he had received the best gift ever.
