A Sweet Surprise

I'm bummed cause my video didn't come out at all. BUT here's the surprise that happened today. DS 1 came HOME! DS 4 didn't think that he was going to get to see his big brother until May. He has been quite bummed about it.

DS 1 gets two weeks off to spend the holidays here at home. He flew in this morning and DH brought him directly to school. I went into DS 4's classroom while they were singing to video it. And suddenly, DS 1 walked in...it was so exciting!

He said, "You didn't tell me you were coming home!" And "This is my BEST Christmas present this year!"

It was a precious precious time and I am a happy Mom. More to come.
