Well, today was a school holiday...something about teacher meetings...soooo, Jake was soooo happy to get out of school. He spent the day with his Nana and her usual spoilings...which he of course just adores! For me, on the other hand, today was just a regular ol' Monday...with it's usual business and distractions....so who would of thought when i got home this afternoon my nine year old would have a special surprise waiting for me...much to my own surprise and delight, I was greeted with the usual "hi mom", but it was followed by a "Stop!" and a "Cover your eyes!" and then a "hold out your hands" command. Ok, sure......and there in my hands, when I opened up my eyes were.............wait for it........a pair of beautiful silver dangly earrings! Jake had surprised me with a pair of earrings he bought with his own money while shopping with his Nana! Now, I know they aren't diamonds or anything fancy but the joy that I had...and still have...knowing my little guy thought of me and wanted to surprise his mom far outweighs any material item i could ever want....sooo, i just wanted to share my little, joyous moment with you... the small things really do mean sooo much!
