Puffer Kite
I never looked at God as a magic genie and I never prayed for toys.......excpet for one, singular moment of misguided weakness. I saw the Puffer kite on Uncle Zeb and fell in love!!!! I just could not live without one so the Friday before we were to go shopping on Saturday, I included a passionate request for a Puffer kite in my bedtime prayers. I still feel guilty about that! LOL That was not normally my m. o. I did get one, which excited me to no end, but I distinctly remember asking God to forgive me, just the same, for being so selfish and for treating Him as though He were my personal wish granter. I never prayed for a toy again after that. LOL
Oh, and the super cool Puffer kite that I just had to have? It got hung in some trees and burst the very first day I flew it. I went back to regular kites after that. Inflatables and tree limbs just don't play well together. LOL
