We didn't think it could be done. Three out of four of our children knew of the surprise - and the fourth was the person to be surprised. There were close calls, but everyone kept their lips sealed.
What better way to celebrate our daughter's 25th birthday than with flying in her boyfriend. She even accomodated by running errands (some provided by us). She walked in the door totally surprised and to our amazement began backing out of the door. Sometimes your body just doesn't know what to do when you're in shock. So much for those Hollywood movies where people are surprised by a visit and run towards each other - not our girl.
Surprises are fun, not only for the person being surprised but for everyone involved. There is something exhilerating about keeping a secret and being part of a surprise.
May this season bring many happy surprises.
