It was a lovely summer day with the wind in the trees the family barbecue was in full swing people were dancing to the music that was playing from the speakers connected to the house "hey guys its present time" my brilliant wife of 2 years said as she walked me over to the table. As I sat down, she put presents in front of me I had gotten to the end of the present pile and was about to get up and hug everyone in thanks when my wife pulls out from behind her back a small rectangle box "open it!" she said excitement clear in her voice smiling up at her opened the gift up inside was a shirt "well read what it says" looking up at all the family members gathered around us with smiles on their faces and video cameras in their hands. Chalking an eyebrow up at them, I picked up the shirt and read what it said "Happy birthday DaD" I read aloud "I'm not a dad.... wait are you?..... pregnant," I said excitement to my voice. My wife nodded a hand on her stomach "I will be a dad" my voice cracked as my eyes filled with tears of joy. I stood up and pull her into a kiss when we break apart, I smile and she smiles back. It filled the rest of the party with family members sharing congratulations and happiness
