What did he say?!

Every year at Christmas, the Sunday School teachers would give their kids gifts. One year dad's teacher Mrs Kay Dunn gave him a small plastic plane and a cowboy-style handkerchief. Dad, being the snot that he was, threw the plane down and said "I don't want!" and stomped away. Grandma was MORTIFIED (as any mother of a horribly ungrateful child would be)! He, of course, got in big trouble when he got home, but a few days later, he was playing at Phil Musimaci's house and played with that little plane all afternoon. Really having a good time with it. It was pretty cool after all! So, he very humbly went back to church on Sunday, found Mrs. Dunn and told her that he played with that plane at Phil's house and really liked it. And, bless Mrs. Dunn, she looked at him with a smile and said "Thank you, Mark." and let it end at that.
