FUN HOUSE
Newborn in for quite a surprise

We were trying to explain to our 4-year-old daughter, Shayden, what to expect when she viewed the birth of our baby.

After what I thought was a simple yet truthful explanation of the procedure, she told me, "Mom, you forgot the most important part."

So I asked her, what was the most important part?

"Mom, you forgot that when the baby comes out, we have to jump at her and yell 'SURPRISE!' " she replied.
