Last year for mother's day, my nine year old daughter accompanied my husband on his shopping trip to buy "mommy" a Mothers Day gift. The two of them were gone for hours, almost all afternoon.

Finally, I looked out the window to see the car coming down the street and pulling into the driveway. I watched them both get out of the car to see if I could get a glimpse of a bag or gift to give me a clue as to what they got...nothing. So I approached my daughter secretively to pry information.

"Hey, sweetie. You and daddy were gone for a long time."

She said, "yup... and I got a blister."

"A blister", I said. "Where were you and what were you doing that you got a blister."

"Daddy let me hit golf balls at the place we got your present."

"Really... you went to the golf store?"

(Nothing on the list that I gave my husband could be bought in a golf store or pro shop, but I might have mentioned that I'd like to learn someday.)

"Yup, but don't tell daddy I told you because I promised I wouldn't. (pause) Mommy, dad says you're gonna love your present."

Curious and surprised I asked her to confide in me what the gift was. With excitement in her eyes she whispers in my ear that, "Daddy bought himself a brand new set of golf clubs and you get to use his old ones!"

I responded to my daughter on the way outside, "OH, NO I DON'T!"
