Aunt Ken

Brad and I decided that we wanted to tell our family first.  I could not wait to tell everyone.  Kim and I went to dinner at Sonoma.  On my drive there, I was trying to think of a clever way to tell her.  I asked the waiter to write "Aunt Kim" on one of our dishes.  I told him that it was a surprise.  Kim walked into the restaurant as I was talking to him.  I don't think that she suspected anything.  As we sat there, I couldn't wait for our food to come.  He sat the first dish down.  It was asparagus with the prosciutto on the side.  In the middle of the plate, it said, "Aunt Kim".  The writing bled a little bit.  Kim said, "Aunt Ken, huh?".  I said, "Aunt Kim.  Aunt Kim.  Get it."  It was so fun to surprise Aunt Kim with the news.  The staff at Sonoma was so excited that they were all cheering.  Our waiter brought over a glass of champagne for Aunt Kim and a glass of apple juice for me.  This was a night to remember.  There was nothing more special that telling my little sister that she is going to be an aunt.  Life is good.
