It’s all a surprised visit…
From the Christmas story we learned that Zechariah the priest had a surprised visit by Angel Gabriel telling him that he and Elizabeth would bear a child and they are to name him, John (Luke 1).
As well, Mary, Joseph & the shepherds had a surprised visit by angels at various times informing them of the birth of Baby King Jesus.
Recently, my family also had a surprised visit, not by an angel, but by a “cake”.
On the eve of my nephew’s wedding, the family went out for a family dinner.
Two of my siblings had to excuse themselves to go and pick up a “cake”.
Everyone knew that a cake was needed for the pre-wedding celebration.
An hour or so later, lo and behold, my two sisters delivered the “cake” to the restaurant, all the way from their international airport. Everyone had a surprised shock on the arrival of this speciality “cake” aka yours truly; the looks of amazement on their faces were priceless… huh, they were well-tricked!!!
Until now, my nephew, still feels giddy upon my surprised visit. The other day he wrote and wowed that I had really given him & his wife a BIG surprise!
Can you spy the “cake” in these 2 pictures ;p
Today in my hometown, another family celebration is going on… another wedding!
One of my nieces, whom I used to babysit and play with, has grown up and is a bride today!
I so wish I could be there to give her a surprise visit too…
