An interesting Christmas Gift...

Santa left a gift for Hayden, Brynley, and Zac. Inside the kids were a little surprised to find a new stocking, pacifiers, and a package of diapers, along with this note from Santa:

Hayden and Brynley sat with their mouths wide open, then Hayden came over to me and told me he has been asking Heavenly Father for a new baby sister. We told him be don't know yet, but maybe it will be a sister! Merry Christmas!

(Thanks to my friend Toni who is a better poet than I am for writing the poem!)

You're welcome!!!! I love the way you presented it to them. I'm glad that Hayden's pray has been answered....sort of. I'm secretly hoping for a girl too. :)

CONGRATULATIONS!!! What a clever way to break the news to your kids. When we were pregnant with Brandon we wrapped up an 8-week ultrasound photo to tell my parents. Hope you are feeling well and have a Merry Christmas!
