BEAMING OVER BABY BOOTIES

submitted by: Kevin and Lael Harrelson

My husband and I had been trying to get pregnant for about four months.  I was a couple weeks late but four pregnancy tests all came back negative.
Finally, one day I stopped by my doctor.  It was positive!!

I was supposed to pick up my husband for lunch that day so I had about an hour to think up something.  I went to the mall and bought a delicate pair of white baby booties.  Then I had them gift wrapped in non-baby paper so I wouldn’t give it away to soon.

I gave the package to the server at the restaurant and asked her to seat us at a secluded table and give my husband the present when she brought out the drinks.  When the server handed my husband the gift he was bewildered but clueless.  “For me?”, he asked.

He unwrapped the little package and a big grin spread over his face.  “Is there something you want to tell me?”, he asked.  Then we both cried and hugged.  That restaurant is so special now whenever we go back and the server (who enjoyed her part in the scheme) always gives us special attention when we come in.
