A Gift of Surprise
Waking, she turned quickly , getting out of the bed quietly. She didn't want to disturb him just yet. Cold air hit her as she pranced through the room, and she could still see the lights from the Christmas tree as they blinked.
Closing the door, her heart beat rapidly and she set about her business. It was hard for her to concentrate, but she finished and came out gleefully.
Jumping, she got his attention, his warm eyes smiling..
"Merry Christmas," she smiled. She handed it to him and watched as his smile grew wider.
It was a gift of surprise.
Gift Received
He felt the bed shift and opened his eyes slightly. From the soft footfalls ,he could tell she was going to check. He knew all along what was going on, but he didn't let on.
He listened intently, hearing the door open, closing his eyes again.
The bed shifted again and he looked into her green eyes. Happiness, love , contentment.
He looked at the item in hand and heard her greeting.
Smiling, he took her into an embrace, he himself , feeling happiness , love and contentment.
A new life beginning, two lives together, strengthen under their love realized.
A gift received.
Sharing
The pitter patter of feet started and they broke their gaze, giggling abound. A curly brown head peeked in .
"Daddy, toys."
They smiled to each other and got up, both taking the little girl by the hand. A growing family walked down the stairs.
Her eyes lit when she saw the tree, and they sat and watched her as she sat, picking over the gifts.
" You want to tell her?" she asked.
" We both can do it." he replied.
They motioned for her to sit and looked into her eyes.
"We have something to share."
She smiled, happily. Another gift.
