Although today is Braxton’s 7th birthday, we’re waiting until this weekend to have his party.  Andy decided that we should wait to give him his gift on Saturday at the party, because he’s going to be SOOO excited about it that he wants everyone to see his reaction.

So…… we decided to order him another gift so that he’ll have something to open today (we weren’t really thinking)!  So, spur of the moment yesterday, we made a purchase on Amazon and did one day shipping so that it would get here today sometime (our UPS doesn’t come until around 7:30 pm! ack!).

This morning, the conversation went a little something like this:

I told Braxton that his birthday present was going to be here after Dad gets home.

He said, “Who is it?”

I said, no, the package man is going to deliver it.

He said “I didn’t know he was a cousin!!!”

Where he got that, I have no idea.

A few minutes go, the doorbell rings.  It was USPS with a package for me.  Poor guy was so disappointed!

Nevertheless, he’ll love his present when it gets here tonight, and he’ll love his big gift even more on Saturday!
