The best present my husband has given to me is a bunch of wild flowers during my visit to hometown last year.We were helping mom harvest corn and then he said he want to go for a walk around,I agreed.But a long time has passed and he did not returned,I was worrying that maybe he got lost then suddenly,a bunch of flowers appeared before my eyes.WOW!so many kinds of flowers and so many colors,how far has he gone to pick them?He even made some thorny wild jujube as a decoration,and gashed his hand to bleed .
Maybe this is the cheapest present he has given to me,but it does is the best present I have received.What about you?

i've received a lot of really good presents in my lifetime but one of the most special would have to be a portrait of myself that a friend of mine made. he kept it a secret for some time then for no apparent reason he just gave it to me, it was so thoughtful of him. sad to say, i lost it in the flood last year.

Hi there! Awwww that's really sweet of your husband to give you flowers and do all those things for you. As for me, I think the best present I have ever received was a laptop our parents bought for me and my sister since our old laptop is not that reliable anymore. Because of the new laptop, my sister and I became more efficient and effective in our school work. That was really sweet of our parents to save up and sacrifice a lot just to buy us a laptop.

So exciting to receive a laptop as a present!Parents have always put their children in the first place.My parents too,and they had given all their earnings to pay my tuition and no matter how hard they were,they always told me to eat well and don't worry about them.Even now they often regreted on the phone that they have not given me a good life in the past time.The parents kindness is too great to pay.

Pretty things will last forever.Some certain scenes replayed in my memory or in my dream ofen although they have passed for many years.It's comfortable to look back the good old days,some are so clearly and give you the illusion that they are just happened yesterday.

The best presents I received from my parents are books. When I was a child, my family was really poor, my parents even couldn't afford the cost of hospitalization when I was born, and the cost of gas installation. Even in this bad financial condition, they didn't hesitate when bought books for me. I got a lot of knowledge from these books, and this made my school learning easier. I could get high score and enter good schools. Maybe this present can be considered as a better future.

Your parents are very great and they have given you a rich spiritual life which will be helpful for a lifetime.My father has taken home books borrowed from my uncles who opened a shop selling goods and books when I was young,and I liked very much,especially the kight-errant books.I can write compositions very well in the school,maybe it's owed to those books.

You daughter is so kind and a computer can link you online.I phoned mom on every weekend but we cannot see each other,my parents are so eager to see my daughter cos they have only seen her at her birth.Now two years has passed,although my baby can point out on the photo which is grandma and which is grandpa,but if they can see on the line,how exciting it would be!

Perhaps the best present i can receive from someone is to receive something that money can never buy or take away...
One sample of which is Love, Respect, Gratitude, Kindness or any positive treatment an individual can give you.
Life is a roller coaster, sometime you are up and you are down. So whenever you are down, you always expect those people who cared to be right there in the battle with you... so just think about how nice life could be when you have those kind of people around...
