It's my birthday today and I have received a very large box from the DGD's, inside are furry dice, a nodding dog and a sticker saying Nana's wheels.
I feel very spoilt, never in a million years did I expect the family to spend that much.

What a wonderful surprise and how wise of you to hid your immense disappointment. Hope you enjoy your new car - every time you drive it it will remind you of your lovely family.

This morning I was upset having only received a card but no present from either DH,DD or DS. I wanted to go in guns blazing about how hurt and disappointed I was. Then I read a thread posted about a little rhyme saying not everyone is my enemy so don't fight them.
I'm so glad I didn't say anything as after lunch we walked around to our sons home and they asked me to get something out of the garage. DD and family were there as well.
All the family followed me outside. I went in the garage and there was a brand new Mini in bright red. I have never had my own car.
They all started to cheer as this was my present from them all. It's also part birthday as well. I'm so happy.
