Confirmation

I took the second digital home pregnancy test this morning at 6:10 a.m. I wanted Mark to witness the definite "Pregnant" on the test.

We're Pregnant!!

I found out we were pregnant this morning at 9:39 a.m. Words cannot explain how happy I was. I could not believe my eyes or the double lines of the positive home pregnancy test, so I readied myself for the store. I went and bought a digital test that would display "Pregnant". While I was out, I had a florist dye a dozen carnations pink and blue. When I got home, I tested again at 11:31 a.m. The test read "Pregnant". I jumped for joy and thanked the Lord. I did not want to tell Mark at work over the phone. All day long I called and bothered him repeatedly questioning, "When are you coming home?" I am certain my voice was shaking. When he finally arrived around 2:00 p.m., I greeted him at the door. I walked into the kitchen where I had gift wrapped two baby bibs. One read "I love my Daddy" and the other read "Texas Longhorns" for his Alma matter. I stuck the positive home pregnancy tests into the floral bouquet and attached a ribbon that read "Daddy to Be" with a greeting card. I stood over the gifts and waited for his reaction. He looked outside and spoke of the lawn. All the while I was waiting for him to notice the surprise. Finally, he looked over. His expression was priceless. I waited patiently while he processed the information. I said, "We are pregnant". He hugged me tight and kissed me. I got slightly teary eyed. He told me I looked more beautiful than ever. He exclaimed, “This is cause for celebration!” I agreed!! He quickly made reservations at one of our favorite restaurants, Jaspers. We had a lovely time and are anxiously looking forward to meeting our blessed little one.
