My mom's birthday fell on a weekend this year. I was 4 hours away at college, or so she thought. My godfather bought me a train ticket home to surprise her.
I had had an accident with a bike that required many stitches on my chin and soft foods. I called her from the train that morning, saying "just got home from getting the stitches out, gonna make some soft mac-n-cheese." She had no idea, clearly.
We're best friends and miss each other every day. My godfather got her a huge flower arrangement for her birthday, and put it on the front table. I hid behind it, and her reaction is the best one on youtube...
I give a permanent YES to pleasant shocks!!
