But I wanted to sell it.

Right.

I did not want my husband to have any clue, any clue.

And he's so sweet back.

I remember him texting me like, it's all good.

You know, we've got this.

We're going to have a beautiful weekend together.

I love you so much.

I can't wait to come home and see you.

And that's when I also realized like, holy shit, my husband is genuinely going to be so even more shocked now.

Like me adding that little sprinkle, that little dash of like, oh, your girl got her period.

Now there is like zero percentage that Matt in his brain is coming home to a pregnancy announcement.

So here's what I did.

I cooked Matt and I our favorite meal that I make.

And by favorite meal that I make, I mean the one thing that I know how to make, which is like taco bowls.

I lit candles.

I put a little bit of music on.

I poured us both a drink, which really I knew would throw him off even more.

And when he got home.

I told him I had a little gift for him, which technically isn't really like out of the ordinary.
