My mom's 70th birthday today!

Well my mum seems to think that she is getting a cheap greenhouse for her birthday,but instead me and her partner have gone halves on a laptop and we sorted that out today as we aregetting it delivered this week ready for next month.I think that she will love her present as i know that someone else will get her a plastic green house.

That sounds like so much fun! I am sure she enjoyed it. I don't think I have ever done that to the point of meeting somewhere else and then, everyone piling in at once. That was a great idea.

About four years ago my sister, brother and I suprised my parents in Florida for their 50th anniversary. It was so much fun they couldn't believe that we surprised them. I was so afraid to do this because they both have had heart attacks and I was afraid we were going to cause another. However, everything turned out great and it was a wonderful time by all. I haven't seen my parents now in 2 years and miss them so much. Hopefully and God willing come August I will be able to visit with them for two weeks. I can't wait. They are now 74 and 75 and not getting any younger.

Happy birthday to your mom and Congratulations to your family! Hope her heathy forever and a happy old age! Besides, silently, today is my birthday too!

happy birthday to your mom! that's so nice of you to have a big party for her! i havent done such big party for my family being the organizer but we used to celebrate birthdays all together as one family. usually it is not a surprise party but it is most of the time a planned party so that everything will be set ready for the party that everyone will enjoy! enjoy =)

happy birthday to your mom!

That sounds wonderful. I am sure she was so happy and so delighted. The last time we did something like that was for my husband's best friend's mom's 70th birthday. They had a big party for her. She is not family but she is like family since my husband has known her for 30 years and I have known her myself for nearly 25 years and she is a great lady who I love like family. It was a really big surprise for her. Her name is Carolyn so when she walked in everyone started singing Sweet Carolyn. It was very special.

Hi, macdingolinger. That is so sweet of you all to surprise your mother like that! I have not surprised anyone in a while as of now. But I am very full of surprises so I know that I may someday surprise someone that I love. I know that you all have enjoyed sharing stories from your early childhood. I hope that your mom will have a beautiful and blessed Birthday today! And I wish her many more lovely Birthdays too.

im sure i have but really cant remember right now. i do remember 32 yrs ago my kids surprised me like that. i had 2 living away that was grown and they came to give me a birthday party. it was the first time all 5 had been with me in 3 yrs. so i took pics but they all turned out to dark they have not all been together with me in the same place since then. wish they would but no money to get them here

Congratulation to your mother and your family ! I think all elder people like enjoying big get together ,and i am sure your mum will never forget such a warm time

That's great. I love surprises. It was nice of you and your family to care for your mom even at this age. There are some children who have abandoned their parents because they are old and rely on them. Recently, I went to an old age orphanage and met many men and women. While talking to one woman I learnt that the woman has 8 children who do not come to see her nor want to look after her. It was very sad and touching to see old people in such situation. Send my regards to your mom for her birthday and a big cheer to you for caring for your mom.

Congratulations!!My grandfateher just have his 80th birthday!!! Well,my birthday was so simple,just ask my parents for money... Hope I can give my parents a surprise on their next birthday.

Congratulations to your mother! She celebrate many, many anniversaries and always have good health and love.
