34 Weeks - Heritage Surprise

Early in January a lady by the name of Jeanie Weaver called me with a suggested surprise. On January 18th the ladies of Heritage Highlands would be having their annual Mailboxes Tournament but that is not all. The ladies wanted to throw your dad a surprise baby shower and asked that I come too. I myself was quite surprised by the gesture and very excited as well.

On the day of the surprise baby shower, I was running some errands in the morning and your dad called asking what I had planned for the day. I was pretty giddy inside knowing that in a couple of hours I would be seeing him but just told him I needed to get some groceries and run some errands.

When I arrived up at Heritage I was greeted by a sweet lady Gloria and led into the dining hall. When your dad saw me you could see in his face he was confused and I jokingly said "Surprise." He asked how long I had known about all this and was even more surprised that I was able to keep it a secret for a couple of weeks.

After the presentations of the tournament winners, the fun began. Patty, who took the lead on hosting the shower, had Preston come up to the front and practice diapering a baby doll. He was pretty embarrassed and was even blushing but did a great job. Preston was able to open some gifts that the ladies had given us and he started crying when he realized how much money was collected for us. It was far too generous and I believe we were both in shock.

It was a pretty fun afternoon and really nice to see your dad in the spotlight. The ladies of Heritage Highlands really do care for him and they went above and beyond anything we could have imagined. I have told you this before but there really are a lot of people excited to see you. Take care little pea.
