As event planners, Michele and I are always planning something for our clients’ milestone moments. Sometimes we are too busy to do the same for ourselves. The below blog was written about a milestone moment in my life.
Life can present many different types of occasions that warrant special planning and attention to detail.
As my husband, Julian, comes home from a hard day at the office he is greeted by our 18 month old daughter, Savanna. Being that she is a “Daddy’s Girl” it was no surprise that she ran to him as he opened the door, a daily ritual. What perplexed Julian was that she handed him a noted an insisted that he read it. Reading the note he first looked at Savanna in surprise, then at me.

“Is this true”, he inquired with a half smile, half right eye brow lift.
“Yes, it’s true”, I said while laughing and continuing to take frame by frame of pictures.
The noted read as follows:
As you can see by the below picture my hubby was surprised and delighted by the news that I was carrying our 2nd baby.

Due to the fact that the announcement of our first blessing was relayed to our family, friends and literally the entire world in an unforgettable way, we shared the news on a national design show on TLC, I wanted to make sure our 2nd announcement was just as special.
The plan
Our parents would receive the news 007 style… sequenized and with stylish flare.
On a beautiful Friday afternoon at 12:53 p.m., each parent was presented with a mid-size box delivered by their neighborhood postman. The thoughts that ran through each of their minds, as told to us later, was “ What could be in the box that was so light weight” ; “ A present of jewelry, money, or maybe photo’s of the only grandbaby”. Opening the box filled with mounds and mounds of packing popcorn they concluded that whatever it was must be a precious item for it to be packed the way it was. Finally getting to the object of their incessant digging, the below shows what they each received.

In deed a precious gift. Another blessing is on the way.
