Both the brother and the sister loved their father very much. So when the father's birthday came they each made their daddy a present. The little girl made him chocolate chip cookies. The little boy made him an ashtray. When the father opened the presents, he was very pleased with the ashtray and he thanked his son and put the ashtray on the desk in his den. But he didn't like the plate of cookies and he dropped it on the floor and said nothing to his daughter.
The little girl cried and the father said, "be careful, because I think you are likely to do something bad." Then he walked into the next room.
The little girl began to pick up the cookies. But she was very angry and jealous of her brother. When her brother smirked happily, she threw a cookie at him. It stained his shirt and made him cry.
The father heard the boy crying and asked the girl what had happened. The girl said, "I don't know."
The father saw the stain on his son's shirt and said, "You threw a cookie at your brother. Now you will have to leave the house and never come back."
The little girl begged to stay because she didn't know how to feed and clothe herself. So her father was merciful and took her to an orphanage. Later she grew up and married and her children all became criminals.
The end.
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I need! May I confirm what bible story this is from I think I know but I want to be sure.
