One birthday started with a friend taking me to the mall to buy me a shirt I had had my eye on. Then she took me to one of our favorite restaurants to have lunch with two more friends. Then we went to a park where more friends showed up. It was all a surprise, I had no idea about any of it except hanging out at the mall. They knew I had always wanted a surprise party as a kid but never got one, so they planned it for me. I still smile whenever I think about it.
