One, two, three, pop! An explosion of confetti filled the sky and quickly started to fall to our feet. For just a moment, the air above our heads was like a stream of cotton candy and our voices all let out shrieks. My dad and some of my nieces and nephews still struggled to open their popper. I stood in disbelief as I hugged my husband and he shouted, "I can't believe it's a girl!" I was so sure we were having a boy. So sure that I would tell people how strong the boy vibes were. Joke was on me though - the streamers were pink. Our families surrounded us and we hugged a cried (happy tears) together.
A baby girl will be joining our family in late August and I could not be more excited. These special moments that we share as a family make this journey so fun and memorable. I don't know if there is anything more exciting to me than bringing a tiny human into this crazy life. For now, bring on the bows!
