Danny's birthday this year fell in the middle of spring break. While he got to have the day off from school, I still had to work all the week. I was a little bummed at not being to spend time with him, but I had only been working a few weeks and couldn't really take it off. Then, to my suprise, since we weren't as busy during the holiday week, my supervisor allowed each of us to take one day off. I decided to suprise Danny with a homemade breakfast and the news that I got to stay home and spend it all with him for his birthday. I had it all planned out. I'd get up at the same time I normally did for work and just start making breakfast instead. Danny is such a heavy sleeper, nothing wakes him up anyway, so I'd be okay there. Once he woke up (around 9 am, since he got to sleep in during spring break), I could say "Surprise! Happy Birthday! I got the day off!" very cool, right?
... well, I didn't intend on one thing. Everything was going great, the banana muffins were coming out of the oven, I was nearly done with the eggs and was in the middle of making a birthday banner, around 7:30, when Danny walks in, all bleary-eyed and says, "I smell banana bread! ... and aren't you supposed to be going to work?" ... *sigh* oh well, so much for my surprise. I did make him go back to bed for half an hour until I finished though, haha, aren't I mean. And yes, he was happy that I got to spend the day with him, and it was so much fun. I hope he enjoyed it.
