Shhhhh, Mama had a surprise Christmas gift for Papa! You are 5 weeks today, on the most wonderful day of the year, the size of a sesame seed. So Mama wrapped up a jar of sesame seeds for Papa with a big red bow :). I can't wait for him to open his gift!
On a glorious Christmas morning, the Leonardo family woke up before dawn and basked in the most magical morning of the year! Your big brothers love Christmas as much as your Mama and we were all full of smiles and Christmas cheer.
Mama gave Papa his Christmas gifts while we sat and enjoyed cups of warm coffee (decaf for me :)) watching the boys swim in the piles of wrapping paper and their new toys. After Papa had finished all of his gifts, Mama pointed out that there was one more box hiding there behind the tree (remember the Christmas Story?? :)).
Your Papa is a "shaker" and he thought it was a new watch. Nope. Then when he saw the box, he thought it was a mug. Nope.
When he opened it, he pulled out the sesame seeds and said, "Sesame Seeds?"
And Mama replied, "That's the size of your baby right now!"
Papa's eye flew open wide and he stared at Mama. "You're pregnant? But how??" he asked.
Then we both laughed and Mama curled up on his lap to talk about all that had happened in the last week. He couldn't believe I had kept it a secret! :)
Mama caught Papa staring off later that morning with a beautiful little smile on his face. I know exactly what he was thinking about. It's not often that someone gets a dream come true miracle for a Christmas gift!!
BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!
