Surprises

Ever have a not-so-fun surprise in your day? Like when you go to pick up your blanket but you don't see the dump truck right beside it and you trip on it and fall down and hurt yourself. Not so fun.

Then there are the so-very-fun surprises. Like when Mama says, "Jonathan, do you want to eat a candy cane?" Good stuff!!!

I had a few of those recently. Want to hear 'bout them? Ok!!

The other day, the day when we "drived" back home from "Har-bee Cedars," Daddy drived the car right beside a very big building. He got out and Mama got out. And they got me out of the car. Then Mama and An-jew drived away. Surprise!! Then Daddy told me that we (just me and Daddy) were going to look at a whole bunch of cars. CARS!!! Talk about the best surprise...not only did we look at the cars, we got to touch some of them and we got to SIT INSIDE some of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND then we got to ride in a train to come back home. FUN!!! "Gank" you Daddy!!!

Yesterday I had another fun surprise. Yesterday Mama asked if I wanted to go out and play in the snow. Silly Mama!! Course I want to!! And An-jew too!! Mama said I had to wear snow pants and boots and mittens and a scarf and a hat. Oh, and my coat too. What a pain to put all that on! But I guess Mama did know what she was doing cause it was cold outside. I walked in the snow and rolled in the snow and "throwed" the snow and crawled in the snow. I wanted to make a snowman (Daddy said we could make one when we got some snow) but Mama said we'd have to try that another time. Something about the snow not sticking together. And she was holding An-jew. FUN!!! Why, oh why did we have to come back inside, Mama??!?

What fun surprises have you had recently?
