Tom was a playful boy. He was happy to do things like laugh, run and play with his friends in the park. One day, Tom asked his mum if he could borrow her beef. Tom's mum said she didn't have any in the house, but if he waited until the evening, she would bring some back home from the store. 
Tom was very excited. He knew this was special, so he decided to wait for his mum to return with the beef. As the day went on, he kept thinking about the beef and what he would do with it.
When evening came, Tom's mum returned with the beef. She smiled at him and said, "Now that I have this, let's make something special."
Tom was so thrilled. He knew his mum was hinting something wonderful, but he couldn’t guess what it was. After dinner, his mum took out the beef and started to prepare burgers. Tom could hardly believe his eyes! His mum had made his favorite food - beef burgers. 
Tom was so happy that he shouted and ran around the room in joy and excitement. He loved his mum for the thoughtfulness of the surprise and the playful way she had foreshadowed it that day.
