The day was December 15th. It was a very special day and I was spending it with my wife.Today marks her birthday she turn twenty-six,she thinks I have forgoten all about. The thing is I have something planned and she has no idea. I have been planing this idea for the last couple months. I have been staying at work extra hours so I could afford to make this day special. I was going to take her to stewart tower for the best dinner. I didn't tell her about this. i had to make so many calls so i could make this happen. I took her out to get new dress and get her hair done. All day she was asking me why she was getting all this for. i told her it was a big secret it wouldn't be a secret if i told you.it was just about time to leave then there was a knock on the door. When i opened the door there was no one there,but our life changed forever.There was a little basket on the porch. I called for my wife to come see this. when we opened the basket it was a baby. We brought inside we were thinking it could have only been a couple months old. We didn't know what to do with it. I told her we had to get ready to leave. She asked what about the baby. I told her we’re going to taking it with us. We can grab things we need for the baby on our way out towards your surprise. As we started to go to the car there was a note on the windshield. I grabbed it to see what it said. “ New family of Tyrone he is 3 months old. We could not afford to keep him we were just not ready. We are just too young. I hope you can support him unlike us. There is nothing wrong with him that we were told from the doctor”. That was the end of the letter. This was such a big change in our life. Me and my wife haven’t decided if we would keep the little guy. After we got everything from the store we carried on with our night. My wife had such a happy face on her face when she seen where we were stopping. As we walked up to the room that was reserved for just us. The baby started crying we changed and feed him. I had dinner on its way from the waiters. My wife asked me what this all was for. I said “ It’s for your birthday”. She said” Thank you very much your the best”. Dinner was very good and we had such a good time there. When we got home we talked about keeping Tyrone.After a couple hours we decided to keep him. A couple years went by and we were so happy, Tyrone was on his way to pre-school. We were having another kid on the way a little girl. We got a letter from the parents of Tyrone asking if they could see him and wanting to know if he was doing great. They left their number on the letter. I called them and told them all about Tyrone and found out good day see him. I took Tyrone to go see his real parents but they never showed up. This made Tyrone was sad he just wanted to go home. When we got home he said “Dad this is my family and I want to stay here”. I replied “ I was happy to hear that I don’t want you to leave”.
