Since we decided to tell our parents a week early, we didn't have much time to plan how. We decided on a homeade card with a beatiful poem I found online a few weeks ago.
"I do not have a face to see
or put inside a frame
I do not have soft cheeks to kiss
I don't yet have a name.
You can't yet hold my tiny hands
Nor whisper in my ear.
It's still too soon to sing a song,
Or cuddle me so near.
But all will change come December 4th
That's when they say I'm due.
I'm your new grandson or graddaughter.
I can't wait til I meet you.
All I ask between now and then
Is your patience while I grow.
I promise I'll be worth the wait.
Because of all the love we'll know.
So what I have to give you now,
Is a wish to you from me.
I cannot wait to be a part
Of this wonderful family."
All I ask between now and then
Is your patience while I grow.
I promise I'll be worth the wait.
Because of all the love we'll know.

Is a wish to you from me.
I cannot wait to be a part
Of this wonderful family."
Love, Baby
Jonny sent the card to his parents yesterday and it should be there around three this afternoon. We told them they can't open the card until we Skype them. We have to see their reaction :) Afterwards, we are headed to Prescott for dinner with Mom, Stepdady, and Grandma Hess. I don't think Mom will be expecting this tonight since we are coming up to see Grandma Hess.
It will be sooo much easier talking to everyone now without having to worry about slipping the news about baby (or hoping someone else doesn't slip for us). I think things will seem much more real now that our family will be in the loop.
So Excited ! :)
