One Sunday, a picture in the newspaper touched me. A young woman stood in front of a totally destroyed home. A little boy stood beside her with his head . Holding her skirt tightly was a tiny girl, eyes wide with and fear.
With growing I noticed that their sizes of each family member closely ours. This would be a good opportunity to my children, so I explained their difficult to my seven-year-old twins and three-year-old Meghan.
“We have so much, but these poor people now have nothing,” I said, “we’ll what we have with them.”
I brought three large boxes and placed them on the living room floor. Meghan watched seriously the boys and I filled one box with canned food.
While I our clothes, I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched as the boys piled up useless toys in the box.
“I’ll help you find something for the little girl,” I said to her.
The boys placed the toys they had to donate into one of the boxes while I filled the third box with clothes. Meghan walked up with Lucy, her worn, faded, much-loved doll tightly to her chest. She in front of the box, pressed her little face into Lucy’s face, gave her a kiss, then, laid her gently on top of the other toys.
“Oh, honey,” I said. “You to give away Lucy. You love her so much.”
Meghan nodded, eyes shining with tears. “Lucy makes me happy, Mommy. she’ll make that little girl happy, too.”
I stared at Meghan for a long moment, how I could teach the boys the lesson she had just taught me.
It’s easy to give what we don’t want any more, but to let go of things we cherish, isn’ t it? , the true spirit of giving is to give with your heart.

Looking , she asked “So, you guys don’t really want to hear any more?” No one dared to actually say “no” to her out loud one kid. He said, “No, not really!” in a disrespectful way. Some kids were a little and thought that it was rather rude.

Interestingly, he was not at all bothered by the or chaos at all. He was never with them and he certainly never shouted at any child. Visits ended with and kisses.
I felt that relationship wasn’t good enough because he didn’t actually do anything my children. My dad didn’t read to the children, and certainly played a board game or did a puzzle with them. He didn’t take them out for or do any of the other things I saw active grandparents doing with their grandchildren. It made me sad that he was to get on with the kids.
A couple of weeks after his death, my 9-year-old daughter turned up in my bedroom at midnight to share a
of him done by herself. Included in the picture were several messages and —one for each day since he had died. The most striking one to me was“I loved EVERYTHING about you, Grandpa”.
Apparently, I was . All that time I thought he wasn’t doing anything with his grandchildren, but he was very actively doing the thing that was most to them. He loved them. And it was all they needed.

Eighty-year-old retired tailor, James McKay, spent Saturday night in jail after thirty-year-old Keith Smith over the head his walking stick. McKay's wife, Laurence told us that while McKay is usually a person, he had been to this act of violence by getting wet just once too often.
Smith lives above the McKays and it appears that not only is he a keen gardener, he is also a collector. Unfortunately for him, the water he sent over his balcony every day ended up on the McKay's, or too often, on the McKays .
“For the last fortnight, since Smith moved into the flat above us, we have hardly dared to go to our ,” said Laurence. She added that it wasn't so much the water falling onto their balcony from Smith watering his plant bothered them, it was more the way he cleaned his fish tanks. “We'd be there happily reading our newspapers, when so much water would come from above that we'd be as wet as if we'd with our clothes on! Neither could we get rid of the of fish!”
And on Saturday evening it was just too . “It was James's birthday,” explained Laurence, “and I'd made him a birthday cake. The candles were a great sight as you can imagine, but James didn't get to blow them out.” , Smith emptied one of his larger tanks over his balcony and both the McKays and the cake were wet . Rarely had Laurence seen McKay move so fast. “I couldn't him. He was up there in a flash. It was the fastest I'd seen him move since 1964.”
Smith is not going to take things further with the police. He has also promised to change his from now on. And what of James McKay? he left the police station, a large crowd of supporters sang him, “Happy Birthday”. “ the most exciting birthday !” said the cheerful old man. “The best since my adolescence I'd say!”
