Early morning surprise.

So. This morning I woke up around 7ish to the smell of food. Troll was still in bed beside me so I started to freak out and was gonna get up and investigate. He said, "No. The kids told me I wasn't allowed downstairs cuz they are doing a surprise for us." So I calmed my nerves and relaxed. About 10 minutes later we were told we could go down. So down we went and here Austin, Jetta and Reag had set their alarms on their DS' to get up to make us breakfast for our anniversary. They made pancakes and toast and coffee. Jetta had colored a very nice picture of two ppl and wrote happy anniversary on it. I sat down and started to cry. They did the whole thing all by themselves. Sure they've helped me cook before but it was always by instruction. This time they made it by themselves. I was so proud of them and absolutely pleased that they would do this for us. Austin kept coming back and rubbing my back!! I don't think he was expecting me to cry. He said, "well we know your anniversary is tomorrow but we knew we couldn't get up that early and make breakfast and then feel like going to church!!" So anyway...that was our morning surprise. Thanks, kids, so very much. You made our day!!!
