A Pleasant Surprise Reaction From Sanjay

Unfortunately Sanjay has to travel to London for work and will miss one of our childbirthing classes on infant care. We were both bummed because we really look forward to the classes every week. I knew Sanjay felt bad about missing so I signed him up for a 'daddy bootcamp' class this Saturday. Sanjay and I always communicate about these things and I usually would not just sign him up for something without his permission, but there was a deadline and I couldn't get a hold of him. I wasn't sure how he would react. Would he be mad I signed him up without his permission? Would he be happy I thought of him? Would he feel overwhelmed? Embarrassed? I printed out the confirmation page and set in on his computer chair. I carefully listened to his reaction as I was watering the plants. To my pleasant surprise I heard him say "Oh yea, I want to do this!". PHEWWW! I had a small tear in my eye because that made me so happy that he didn't think twice about giving up a Saturday morning (for three hours) to learn daddy techniques; and be so enthuasiastic about it. I love you baby! I love both my babies!
