It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Rose told her father and me that she
wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fade, or so we thought.
We bought the latest rage, Baby Sitter's Club dolls, and a doll house. Then, much to our surprise, on December
23rd, she said that she "really wanted a bike more than anything else." It was just too late, what with all the
details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last-minute gifts, to take the time to select the "right bike" for
our litter girl. So here we were Christmas Eve around 9 p.m., with Rose and her six-year-old brother, Dylan,
nestled snug in their beds. Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child. "What
if I make a little bicycle out of clay (泥) and write a note that she could trade (互相交换) the clay model in for
a real bike?" Her dad asked. "This is an expensive item and she is 'such a big girl,' it would be much better for
her to pick it out." So he spent the next four hours painstakingly working with clay to make a tiny bike. On
Christmas morning, we were excited for Rose to open the little hear shaped package with the beautiful red and
white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud. "Does this mean that I trade in this
bike that Daddy made me for a real one?" Beaming, I said, "Yes." Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied,
"I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I'd rather keep this than get a real bike." At
that moment, we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!
