Christmas Wish... Dream Come True...

Ever since I was 6 yrs old I have always wanted a cell phone. By 3rd/4th grade all my friends had gotten one for Christmas. In middle school EVERYONE had one. And in High School people took their cell phones for granted. I still did not have one:( My Mom always told me from the very first time I asked, I wasn't going to get a cell phone until I had a job. So you can assume I wasn't going to get one until I was 16 or older. Well, Christmas's were nice. I really was appreciative, but each year there was always a gift I knew I wasn't getting... Nevertheless, I had to be grateful. Christmas 2010 I got a porcelain doll, clothes, money, etc... The usual... 15 minutes later my mom brought out a plastic bag and told me "Here's the gift I think you really wanted." Well, that year I believe I wanted a Wii so I thought that could possibly be it. The bag was too little though. I had no idea what it was. Of Course it wasn't a cell phone... (Not until I get a job) I open the bag and look down to see a picture of a phone on a box. My jaw dropped open and my eyes widened. I couldn't believe it... Tears started to pour out of my eyes, I was so overwhelmed. I seriously was pinching myself thinking it was a dream. I think my favorite part was when I texted all my friends from my phone. All their replies were OH MY GOSH ARE YOU SERIOUS??? It was pretty funny:) I have to say I am probably the most deserving person receiving a cellphone. So next time you take your phone for granted, think about it. Some people don't get one until their 15 and a half yrs old. APPRECIATE YOUR CELL PHONE!!! It's a privilege.
