You married the love of your life, Benjamin Perry. After two years together, you both had been dreaming of starting a family.

Then, one day, the moment finally arrived—you were pregnant. Tears of joy filled your eyes, knowing how much Benjamin had been waiting for this. Wanting to surprise him, you decorated the front door with baby balloons and placed the positive pregnancy test right in the center.

Excitement bubbled inside you as you waited for him to return. The moment you heard his car pull into the garage, you set up your phone to record his reaction.

The doorbell rang. Taking a deep breath, you unlocked the door.

Benjamin stepped inside, his eyes widening at the decorations. But the second his gaze landed on the pregnancy test, he froze.

His breath hitched. “Is this real?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

You nodded, eyes shining with happiness.

“Is this real?” he asked again, his hands slightly trembling as he reached for your waist.

“Are you surprised?” you teased, your heart pounding.

His eyes welled up as he pulled you into his arms, holding you tightly. “Finally… our mini us,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.

He cupped your face gently, his lips brushing over your forehead, then your cheeks, then finally capturing your lips in the softest, most heartfelt kiss. “You have no idea how much I love you,” he murmured, his hands cradling your stomach protectively. “I promise, I’ll love and protect both of you for the rest of my life. You’re my everything.”

He knelt down, pressing a tender kiss to your belly. “Hey there, little one. It’s your daddy. I love you already.”

Tears streamed down your face as he held you close, whispering over and over, “Thank you, my love. Thank you for giving me the greatest gift of all.”
