Today has been an extremely long day ! We drove for what seemed like days , through what seemed like a hurricane , to Miami . It is my Uncle 's 50th birthday today so we celebrated with him and the rest of our family .
Question: Why was this event , the uncle 's 50th birthday , momentous enough to be worth such an unpleasant drive ?
The answer to the above question:


They love their uncle , and they want to support him on this milestone birthday , even if it means bad driving conditions
