Birthday surprises!

"Happy Birthday sweetie!" My darling parents exclaimed as they handed me 2 medium sized presents and a glittery card.

" Thank you mum, thanks dad!" I squealed with excitement. Making sure I was being polite I reached for the card first and read it:

Dear darling Belle,

Happy Birthday sweetie!

We hope today is full of fun and cuddles!

We have a little surprise for you too...

You are a daughter that all parents would be proud to have raised ( so far at least.. ).

We love you sooo much baby!

Love always, mummy and daddy xoxo

" Awww! Thank you for the card! " I told them. Although, I couldn't help but wonder what the surprise was...

My mother handed me the gifts with a smile on her face.

I tore open the pink wrapping paper and to my delighte saw a beautiful picture of mum, dad and myself. The photo was framed stunningly with the words " Family Forever " at the bottom.

My heart skipped a beat! I loved it so much! I knew deep down inside that I was truly lucky to have been born into this family.

" Oh guys... I love this so much! We all look so happy, see?" I said whilst holding up the photo so my dad could take a photo.

" Good! We didn't know if you would like it....if you want we could swap it for a doll set or something like that." My mother questioned.

I understood what she meant, but I would prefer this photo. Soon I wouldn't be interested in dolls... But I will always love my family and I will keep this photo all my life! I guess I'm just mature for my 7 years today.

" Don't be silly! I love this a lot! It is a memory!" I reassured them with enthusiasm.

Suddenly a cheeky smile appeared on my fathers face...

He bent down under the double bed and reached for something. As he brought it onto the bed I noticed that it was a small box.

"Here, this is the surprise!" My parents said at the same time.

As I reached for the box, I realised my hands were sweaty. I really wanted to know what was in it!

I undid the ribbon surrounding the mysterious box. As I slowly opened the box my mum got out the camera to catch my reaction.

" No way!!!" I shouted!

The small box contained a plane ticket! To America! I had never been on a plane before...let alone gone over seas! I felt as though I had ants in my pants!

I jumped over to my parents and gave them a huge hug. I then jumped up onto the bed and did my happy dance!

" We'll come on munchkin!" My dad said with a laugh " The plane leaves tomorrow, so I'll help you pack your suitcase tonight!".

At the time I thought this was going to be the thing that would ever happen to me.

But it ended up being the worst...
