The Big Surprise is a story based on true events that took place on our dairy farm as we were growing up. The first day Midnight arrived at our farm, he and Doug were inseparable. If Doug was anywhere outside, Midnight was with him. If Midnight sensed a threat, he was by Doug’s side, rumbling deep in his throat. At the time, the loss of Midnight was a horrible thing to us, but we grew from it. As farm kids, loss of life was something we had to deal with regularly because we had lots of animals. Therefore, I think farm kids get prepared for loss and real-life experiences pretty young. Doug was no exception. Doug actually had very bad luck with pets, but he never gave up. He learned his capacity to love was great, and his heart was meant for many. It also helped me to realize what great parents we had to help us through these events. If we take the chance to love, we are going to experience loss-they go hand in hand.
