For my daughter's 19th birthday, we bought her tickets to go and see Linkin Park, as they were playing in our city. We didn't really have the ____ but we knew how much this band meant to her.
The night before she was like a ____ at Christmas. Every so often she got up and came to ____ with us, because she couldn't ___. On the night of the ____ it was good to see her so ____ and excited, as she and her boyfriend set off.
Needless to say when they ____ after midnight, with Tshirts and lots of pictures of the band, ____ her telling about how fantastic they had been, we knew the money had been well ____. This will be a memory she would ____ forget, and nor would we.
____ full of excitement from the night before, the following day they ___ to go shopping on the other side of the city. My husband and I ____, loving the fact that she had not ____ that quality as she grew up.
Later that day they returned, with faces full of happiness and warmth. They presented my husband and me with a ____ each. On each present were the words “Because you are the ____ mum/dad in the world”. When we said our thankyous and told her she didn't have to, we asked her ____ she had bought us gifts. Her ____ was simply “Just because I love you”.
This wasn't something ____ from our daughter; she had always given us a gift when she wanted to express her ____, and each gift was always a welcome surprise. It could have been anything, it wouldn't have mattered, and it was the act itself and the feelings behind it.
