Hello, dear friends!
Today, just a small tiny post to share with you our wonderful news.
You see, our beautiful daughter-in-law had an ultrasound done four weeks ago to find out the baby's gender.
But, while this was happening, our son was back out at sea for a month long deployment.
She wanted to make sure they found out together, so since this was not possible at that time, she asked the doctor not to tell her and just put the results inside a sealed envelope so they could open it together when he got home.
Oooh, it has been a long month! LOL
We waited and waited and the envelope finally was opened this past weekend.
And, as the whole family sat in our family room around the speaker phone, they gave the good news.

I don't have to tell you all the screaming, cheering, crying and hugging that went on. LOL
They will be home with us next February and our grandson will join us shortly after that.
Life just doesn't get any better than this! :)
Thank you for letting me share these wonderful news with all of you.
Big hug!
