Surprises Can Be Great!

So far, since April, the surprises I've received have not been very good.  Surprise!  You're anemic!  Surprise!  You need a little surgery!  Surprise!  You have cancer!  Surprise!  You need another, bigger surgery!  Surprise!  The cancer moved a bit so you need chemo!  Needless to say, these are not surprises that help make a person feel good.

However, there are surprises that are good and I was greeted with one earlier this week!  On a day I'm normally pretty out of it, a knock came at the door and....Surprise!  It's my brother in law David and my two nieces Lexi and Becca!!!  This was a surprise I could handle and loved!  While I was still tired, and had to lay down for a bit during the visit, I was never happier!!  Happiness and excitement can wipe away exhaustion for a little bit and it was so good to see the three of them!!!  I've decided...from now on, I want surprises like that!  Love you guys!!!
