The first kick......

Well, Jean felt the first kick last night. She had always hoped it happened at home, and not at work, so I would be there for it. I guess you can say that I was. Here is how it all went down.....(vision goes blurry and fades to monday night bedtime)

Jeff is watching Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, and Jean is just crawling into bed after her long evening ordeal of getting ready for bed. Jean just gets comfy, and Jeff shuts off the TV. Jean says, "What was that? Was that........" in one of her famous let the end trail off and give no indication if she heard someone break in, the furnace just kick in, or any other of 1 million things she could be talking about.

Jeff says "What, what did you hear?"
Jean, "SHHHHH"
Jeff sits quietly as to not upset the pregnant lady.
Jean, "I think the baby just kicked"
Jeff, "Really, where?" while reaching out to touch her belly and try to feel it myself.
Jean, "SHHHHHHH!!"
Jeff, "Why, does being quiet make you feel it better?"
Jean, "Yeah, just shut up!"
Jeff, "This is stupid"
Jean, "I wonder if thats what it was?"
Jeff, affraid to say anything, drifts off into a peaceful slumber, for approximately 20 minutes before his wife has to pee........

(Vision fades back to modern day, current time)
So thats how it happened folks. Jean is pretty sure its a girl now, as to the fact that its been lazy, and not doing anything for such a long time, and boys are so "busy".

  1. I'm a girl & I'm pretty lazy. Might want to reconsider.
