Home to celebrate Christmas with my family! And I managed to keep the pregnancy a secret until now!! 
We are having our annual, Dust siblings and spouses, cabin Christmas party and I’m excited to share the news.
Recap, my family is aware that I was most likely done having children, they think I’m not drinking because of my liver which had a hard run with chemo, and let’s just say, this is going to be a shocker. 
So, I told everyone that we had a gift for mom to thank her!! Since she selflessly took care of me and my family this past year and slept on my couch without complaining once. (This is a big deal, I would have complained!) 
So I read my mom a poem I wrote and you can watch the video to see the rest. The last refers to her grandchild 27! And her last, we are done after this one. Well, I guess never say never!
“Dear Momma Marie, what can I say? What to give you on this Christmas Day!
It has to be special, just like you! So why not make it the last, yes, I think that will do!

So open the box to see your surprise! It’s sure to bring excitement to your beautiful blue eyes!”
