The best surprise a man can get!

My eldest son called me Friday afternoon saying FEDEX was bringing a package Saturday that took adult signature. So, I stayed home, weed whacked, mowed, cleaned the garage, cleaned yard stuff up and made sure I was available at the time he estimated the package would arrive.
As 4:00 rolled around, it was tempting to call him for a tracking number but I waited, watching a Amazon movie. I heard a horn blaring in my drive around 4:15. Thinking WTH is that idiot FEDEX driver doing I rushed to the back door.
In the drive sat my son with his wife Mali pulling their camper!!!
I had to cancel a trip scheduled for this week to Seattle to visit them due to China Virus restrictions. They drove across the nation to visit the old man. I had tears of pure joy as I hugged them both. It is AWESOME to have them here, they can't stay long but we will have a ball until the sad time they must leave.
He made home made tacos for dinner last night and they were fantastic. Today will be a full day with flying on the agenda along with lots of chatter and laughter. I am ecstatic over their arrival, having your grown children show up as a surprise is a wonderful feeling.

I am pleased when my youngest shows up, the other three not so much.
I have to disagree with your title....the best surprise a man can get is when his only grown child shows up with his 3 grandsons!
But I fully understand your feelings.
Not the Best Surprise that I ever Got !!!
But : Thats All You !!!
Great Deal for You !!!
Thanks !!!
