While listening to a sermon podcast as I was flying, I was inspired to try and arrange a surprise for the family. Breanna came up with a great plan.
So, at Breanna’s second ultrasound appointment to confirm the baby was developing properly, we brought a blank Christmas card and asked the doctor to write down the baby’s gender without out telling us. Then he put the card in the envelope and we brought it home to rest under the Christmas tree.
On Christmas Eve we decided to open the card as a family. Breanna’s mom participated from Indiana via Skype video call.
With a “here we go!” the envelope was opened. Inside the card the doctor had scrawled “the sex appears to be male” All of the kids were very excited since they had all decided they wanted another brother.
