A gift that marks the heart...

As a twelve year old girl I dreamed of horses. I longed to have my own. I saved up money, memorized Bible verses, and did every possible job to go to horse camp. I think it was that year at Christmas, I receive the most beautiful pair of black cowboy boots I had ever seen. Dad picked them out. They had fringes and were a soft suede leather. Pointed toes with silver tips and little silver buckles on the sides. 

To this day, it's a gift I have never forgotten. 

Thanks Dad for delighting my young girl heart!
