Such A Cute Birthday Boy!
Back at the end of June Stuart’s friend Steve was up for a couple weekends. He brought along his Nintendo Wii at one point and Stuart couldn’t stop talking about how much he wanted one. So Jeffrey, my mom and I started conspiring THEN to get him a Nintendo Wii for his birthday (which is October 8th). Unfortunately with my being off work and what not I didn’t think it would happen… but I got a phone call yesterday from my brother. He was on his way home from work and stopped in Courtenay to pick up the Wii, and said I could pay him back in increments over the next little bit! And my dad went down to pick Jeffrey up at WalMart, and when he saw what Jeff was doing he insisted on getting a game and an extra controller as well.
Jeffrey texts me last night to come downstairs ALONE so I did, and he showed me what they got. I was so excited for Stuart to get it, and Jeffrey was too so there was NO WAY we could possibly wait until Monday! Now I’ve been dropping hints for the last little bit about the gift… saying there was a few people going in on it together… and I told him not to spend his PayPal stuff until after his birthday ’cause he might need it for other stuff… and I told him we had to get it in Courtenay….
Well I come back upstairs and ask him if he wants his birthday present. He tried to shrug it off saying “Sure”, but he’d already said he was excited so I know he was playing. LOL. So I tell Jeff to come in, and of course it’s not wrapped so he comes in holding the Wii box… Stuart almost fell off his chair! HEHEHE. He could not believe it. It was so awesome to see his reaction. Hehe.
I asked him later if he really didn’t know what he was getting and he said he had no clue. He thought we were getting him a rare Transformer or something, he never thought we would get him something like these. He runs himself down a little too much sometimes… doesn’t believe people love him enough to do something like this. But I was so excited to get him something he really wanted there was no way I was going to settle for anything less!
I am surprised my dad pitched in as much as he did… but at the same time not really. LOL.
