We're expecting

In late May early June of 2004 Mike and I decided to take a home pregnancy test, due to me being late on the "monthly visit". I remember going to the upstairs bathroom, because Mike had the down stairs bathroom occupied. I took the test, waited the few minutes like the directions said too, contemplating on looking at the RESULT earlier then I should have. I finally looked, shocked to find out it was positive, "I'm or no WERE pregnant", I said to myself. I sat there not knowing how or what to think. I finally came too. Went down stairs and Mike still wasn't out of the bathroom. So I knocked on the door, handed him the pregnancy test, shut the door behind me and I sat on the couch overwhelmed with emotions. I was excited but yet scared. We didn't know what to say to one another. We sat in silence for a while, finally looking at one another with tears of joy. We said to each other "Were going to be PARENTS." We hadn't even been married a year yet. Could this be a "test" to our marriage?!
We didn't know if we should wait to tell our parents till I went to the doctors and got the final say. We just couldn't WAIT. Mike being the only child and this would be the FIRST grandchild, and GREAT grandchild called his parents and Pop-pop first to let them know the exciting news. We're expecting! They would be called Mom-Mom & Pop-Pop and "Big Guy Pop-pop. After his call, I made my call to my parents, congratulating them on being a Nana & Nano again.
