a SURPRISE from my son

On Friday I was pretty amazed. Kids had a 1/2 day of school I called to check on them and my daughter said all was well. I asked “what’s ur brother doing?” She says “he’s making a surprise for you.” Now my kids know I’ve had a pretty rough week–worst I’ve had in many years. This tid bit of info from my daughter brought tears to my eyes. My son will be 15 in a few weeks and believe me, its ALL about HIM-not uncommon for this age.

Upon my arrival home–coming in thru the kitchen I say to myself–hmm wasn’t the kitchen he cleaned or made brownies, great room-untouched. I hear the lil people in my life in the basement so I proceed downstairs to find my daughter playing Guitar Hero and my son watching rocking in the chair. I see my Dyson, AHA he vaccumed the basement I thank him, he smiles. I said “Lola says you have a surprise for me”. He says “don’t you hear it?” I said “no” he says “look around” and to my wandering eyes should i see HE INSTALLED SURROUND SOUND FOR HIS GAMING TV IN THE BASEMENT!!!!! I say “that’s real nice buddy, how is this a surprise for me?” He says “well if you’d like to watch a movie in the basement you’ll have surround sound.”

Isn’t that nice?—I seldom go down there, it's his lil hangout for him and his buddies—pssst if I’m gonna watch a movie I’ll go in my room or in the great room, because I ALWAYS fall asleep LOL

What wonderful surprises have you come home to?
