On Camden's birthday we were heading downstairs to do the cake and presents, when my family called and wanted to skype. So, we went down and turned on the computer so they could watch Camden on his birthday....little did we know that they had planned the whole thing out. Right as we were getting it all set up and about ready to sing happy birthday, there was a knock on the door...followed by a little pounding, and a few more knocks. I went to the door to see my aunt and uncle, who live about 45 minutes away. I thought, oh how nice, they remembered that it was Camden's birthday and came over to say hi. Then out of nowhere....my mom jumps out and says "hi!" CRAZY!!! It was soooo exciting to have her come and visit. It was so needed and just lovely to have her here. I was happy that she got to see Brynlee and spend time with the other kids. It is so hard being away from family and I want my kids to know their grandparents and cousins, so any extra time we get with them, we love! It was a great, special, happy surprise and one that I am sure we will never forget. Thanks mom for coming! We love you and loved the visit!
