history: My family threw me a surprise birthday party last month I was so amazed when I walked in. My family is the best they through me a surprise birthday party. That's nice of them! People stopped doing that for me once I got older. I miss them
current: I was amazed they even did that but very grateful I haven't had anything in a while also so you wasn't alone your family will do something and you will enjoy it. 
next: Well, I'm happy for you :) It shows that they care
