Watch: Heartwarming Gender Reveal for a NH Couple Previously Told They Couldn’t Have a Baby and That’s Not All
You wait, this is going to be a Hallmark Movie if I have anything to say about it!
I may have watched this video about 12 times... today. This is, by far, the best thing that I've seen on the internet in weeks.
Alexis (the pregnant Mom you see in the video) and I used to work together at another radio station group in the Concord, NH, area for a couple years from about 2004 - 2006. At first viewing, you might just see her and three girls waiting for their Dad to cut the cake. He is excited to see that he finally gets a boy. What you DON'T see is the real story of this family.
Brielle, the girl on the left in the video is Alexis' niece who she has the honor of raising as her own. Alexis' sister had addiction problems and has since passed away.
When we asked the girls what they wanted, all three wanted a brother without question. I was rooting for a boy just because they all wanted one...... In the video, from left to right there is Brielle, Payton, Mia, myself and then Mike. This year has been an emotional rollercoaster for us. We lost 5 people in 5 months, 3 of them members of our immediate family. Most notably for Brielle, her biological mother (my sister) lost her battle with addiction this summer. She is learning to make peace with that. In this video, there were happy tears. She has gotten her forever family, a new baby brother and a delicious slice of cake.
