What is the greatest gift we can give our children? Physical traits, tangible gifts, a home full of anything they need? What about the gift of time?

It's 2 a.m. and all is silent. Well, all except for the sound of a sweet little voice whispering, "Mommy." Awoken from a deep sleep and bleary-eyed, I try to make out the figure standing next to my bed...
