I had surprise 16th, 18th and 20th birthday parties, all of which I figured out.
I had 3 surprise bridal showers, all of which I knew about.
I had 2 surprise baby showers, which I knew about.
And today I had surprise baby shower #3, and I was completely BLOWN AWAY!
My class threw me the SWEETEST, most special and sincere party I could have ever asked for. Almost all of my children's parents were there, as well as former students' parents, and I got beautiful gifts.
My FAVORITE gift was a book of advice that every child wrote a page for. Some of the advice was...
'Poopy diapers - let someone else change them!'
'Hug your baby a lot'
'Let your baby wear nail polish'
'When a baby cries it's hungry or wet. Try hungry first.'
'Read lots of stories and finish them even if the baby looks like it's sleeping'
It was a WONDERFUL day, and I'm exhausted but so very happy!!!

Re: My very first true surprise party!
I think that's officially the cutest thing I've ever heard in my life.
The scary part is that they're on the ball with that advice...except maybe the nail polish...they don't worry about that stuff until a little later.
