It's The Thought That Counts!

I can't count the times I've been told "it's the thought that counts". One time I was gonna bake a cake for a friend's birthday. I wanned it to look like the picture in the magazine, but when I went to frost it, my frostin was all runny. I was so upset, and my mom said "it's the thot that counts. She will luv it anyway". I saw a tv show on decoratin but when I went to copy the idea, my room looked like a cluttered closet! It was horrible. My friend said, "well, at least you tried. It's the thot that counts". I took sewin lessons once and was gonna make my grandmom a dress, but mine came out like a rag. Of course, I was told that she would luv it because it was "the thot that counts." I never understood why people always said that. It wasn't the thot that I wanned to give them. Hearin those words didn't make me feel better. It made me angry cuz my gift didn't turn out right.
Somethin happened the other day that made me understand why people say "it's the thot that counts". I was on the phone with one of my favorite callers, DC. He asked me what I wanned to do for the weekend. I mentioned that some friends and I were wantin to go to a concert. I hadn't even checked the schedule or made plans in any way. We just talked about how much fun it would be if we could go. That was all we said about that and then we talked about more fun things - #phonesex! He has a way of makin me feel like I am the only girl in the world. He is so sweet and tells me how he would make luv to me. I luv how gentle he talks to me and how hot I get when I am listenin to him. I try to make him feel all good, too. As I listened to him, I learn what men like and want when havin sex. Our call was amazin.
The next mornin I saw DC online and he told me to check my email. I 'bout fainted when I saw. He had bought 3 tickets for me and my friends to go to the concert. I was so excited I kept bouncin up and down. I couldn't thank him enough. I was so happy! I started plannin what I would wear, who I would take with me, what all I needed to take, and everythin! Then when I told my mom that my friends and I were goin to the concert, she said I couldn't cuz she had made plans for the family that weekend, and I had to go. I was crushed. I told her this was a chance in a lifetime. I told her I was a big girl and I should be able to go if I want. As she talked and explained, then I really did understand that my mom had made important plans for the family and it would be best for me to go along with them.
Tellin DC that I couldn't take advantage of his kindness was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. Even tho he understood, I was disappointed. The longer I talked to him, the more I realized some things. Then it hit me all at once - this is what that sayin means. It was the thot that counts. The fact that DC would do somethin that special for me and do his best to surprise me was wonderful. Even tho I couldn't go I will always hold onto the thot that he did that for me. That is unforgettable. Thank you with all my heart!
