I love to surprise people. and when I had moved to Texas back in august 1989, I was missing everyone. and I really couldn't afford to visit my family for the holidays that year. when I talked to mom on the phone, she wasn't happy that her only daughter would not be home. I heard from the boys that she wasn't happy and wouldn't visit with family. so I got an airline ticket and waited at Rob and Shirley's house. The boys dragged her complaining and gripping to the house. I swear she looked right at me and didn't see me. she was that upset. then I finally got right in front of her and she screamed and started crying, she couldn't believe that I was there. the picture is the one with mom, me and Shirley in Shirley's kitchen. we were all happy and crying
