Today is Easter and we told Ben & Molly.
We had plans to have Ben & Molly over for Easter lunch. I love entertaining and she loves to be pampered. It is a great match. I did all the cooking, except the fruit salad. We had honey baked ham, hashbrown casserole, homemade mac & cheese, deviled eggs, Mexican corn, yeast rolls, coconut cake, chocolate pie and fruit salad. It was most yummy and I was most tired when it was all said and done.
I had prepared Easter baskets for both of them. Molly's had a book that said "Grandma Loves me" along with her favorite candy and other goodies. Ben's had a John Deere bib in it with his favorite candy and other goodies. They both took their baskets at the same time. Ben went straight for the bib while Molly was focused on her candy. I was watching him hold that bib up to his chest and mumble, "I don’t think this is going to fit. What is this? Ok, I think it is too small…" She began to look up at him to see what the deal was and I stopped her and said, "Look at that book in your basket". Her eyes were as big as sand dollars as she stared at me in shock. He stopped mumbling and looked over with wonder on his face. I said, "We're having a baby." She shouted, "Really, You really are??!!" I hugged her and said, 'Yes, I really am." The bib then made total since to Ben and he put it down and moved on to his candy.

Molly immediately started talking about baby beds. She wanted to go buy one right then! It was so much fun to see her so excited. The woman LOVES a baby and I know she will love Baby L like crazy. I can't wait to see her love this baby of mine.
