Dear Baby Hawley,
It didn't take long for Daddy to figure out that you are on the way. Catherine and I were going to surprise him with the special shirt we ordered, but he guessed our news before the shirt even arrived!
I am still nursing Catherine and I came home from school today with my little black bag. I commented that it had been a tough day and I didn't have much milk to give Catherine. Daddy turned around and asked, "Are you pregnant?" but he had a goofy smile on his face. He was only kidding when he asked that. I told him that I couldn't hide the truth and that, YES!!! We are!!!
He was really surprised. He'd just asked that question because he had had a funny dream last night in which I was pregnant, and now it turns out that the dream was telling him the real story.
Daddy is so happy! He asked that question as we were standing in the kitchen. I was getting ready to leave for a meeting with Aunt Anna. Uncle Mark and Ezra and Leah were staying here with Catherine and Daddy for the evening. They were just arriving and we quickly decided to hold our little secret to ourselves for a bit longer - you are still so tiny inside me and it's fun to have such a big secret that others don't know about yet. We are going to enjoy our private knowledge of you for a while before letting the rest of the family know that you are on the way.
Dearest Little One, we love you so much! Keep growing and know that you have a family that loves you and can't wait to share our world with you.
