verklempt

Look at what my family did for me!  See that bike?  It's my very own!  Right off the showroom floor. I took it for a ride on Saturday morning and totally trashed my previous 30 mile time, faster by 0.84 mph.  I know that doesn't sound like much, but it cut 7 minutes off my total time!  

But it's not really about faster bike times, or even the new found freedom of my very own bike.  I don't have words... I just... I mean this isn't a cheap bike!  And they did it.  For me.  Because they love me, because they want me to be happy.  Because they know I love being on a bike.  Because, because, because!  They did it for me.  

"Thank you" just feels so small.
