It was the best plan ever. First we would
make sure she was out of the house. Then we'll
get all the necessary work done. By the time she
got back, it would be wonderful. So, we got to
work. Now, how to get her out of the house ?
Well, we came up with the clever trick of
telling her that we desperately needed some
school stuff. Ever the concerned mother, she
went out to get them. The first part of the
plan was done. Next, we got together the
important people and made sure there were no
signs that they were there. All shoes were
locked away. Then, the whole house was given a
makeover. Balloons and streamers were displayed.
It really made the house look nice. Then, we
waited. When we heard her car driving up the
porch, we held our breath. The moment it opened
we shouted, "Surprise!" The look on her face was
worth a million dollars. Laughing and crying at
the same time, she hugged all who were there.
Lastly, she came to use. She said, "My best gift
of all is my two lovely daughters." And she
hugged us tight. |
