Sharing the News with Zachary

We couldn't wait to tell Zachary. When we found out for sure on Tuesday while I was at Michael's Craft Store, I bought a t-shirt, iron on's, colored foam sheet & letters, baby stickers and a gift bag that I could decorate. We made him a shirt that says "Future Big Brother," a sign that says "I Can't Wait to Meet You," and on the gift bag there were baby stickers and the due date month and year.
I picked Zach up Wednesday after work. John was home when we got home. He placed the gift bag on Zach's bed. We sent him in his room to get his "gift." As he was walking to his room, I started to cry (go figure)! I had my head turned when he came back in the front room because I didn't want him to think something was wrong. So, we had him read his bag and he really didn't seem to get it. He took out the sign and read it. His back was facing me. He turned around with a HUGE smile on his face and asked me if I was going to have a baby. I can't remember if I shook my head or said "yes." All I know is that I was so happy that he was happy. We told him to look at the shirt. IMMEDIATELY, he took off the shirt he was wearing and put on his "Future Big Brother" shirt. I looked over at John and I saw him wipe his eye :)
