Surprise for Me!

Some of you might be interested in seeing THIS:


When I got home from San Francisco we walked in the door carrying much of our luggage. The lights were off but I looked ahead and thought I saw a piano. I looked again to make sure I really saw a piano. The lights turned on.

Me: Is this ours?
Isaiah: Yes.
Me: To keep?
Isaiah: Yes.

And then I cried. And sometimes I still cry thinking about how nice people are!

Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to this beautiful surprise for me. I understand it started with my thoughtful husband who wanted to do something nice for my return from surgery and had been saving money for a piano (without my notice). I also understand there were some very generous contributions made from family members so Isaiah could pick a nicer piano than he planned on and a nicer piano than I ever imagined I'd own. I love it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[One benefit of my baby growing up in the NICU is he can sleep through almost anything, including my piano playing.]

  3. It was hard not to spill the beans, but for once we managed. What a sweet blessing. Can't wait to hear Evan playing "CHopsticks." Maya and I have our unique version.... and she even sings (sort of) when we play. You didn't know "Chopsticks" had words, I bet.

    Love you.
