We got kiddo her car last weekend.
Yeah, I know we said we were waiting for Christmas and going to surprise her with it. There were a couple things that made us change out mind. We first were wondering how to get out of state and back without her realizing it to pick up the car. We then wondered where to hide it successfully. Then we started thinking about how we are very predictable. Kiddo asked for so little and she knows because she rarely asks for anything that we'll move Heaven and Earth to get her what she asks for on the rare occasions she does.
She asked for a car for Christmas.
Deep down we know she knew that if there was any way possible, we'd make it happen.
So all the plans for an elaborate unveiling was not really going to be a surprise.
What would be a surprise is waking her up nearly 2 months before Christmas (before she even has her learners permit) and go pick up the car together as a family.
She was so excited.
I'm glad we decided not to wait. We couldn't have pulled that off as successfully as my parents did.
The baby is growing up way too quickly.
