But after he opened it, he found it was empty and again he was angry."Don" t you know, young lady, " he said, "when you give someone a present there"s  supposed to be something inside the package!"
The little girl looked up at him with tears running from her eyes and said, "Daddy, it"s not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."
When the father heard this,  he fell on his knees and put his arm around his dear little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.
