Michael Mitchell got off the plane to a surprise greeting from his wife, two kids, and some close family. But the excitement of seeing his family kept his attentions off of the unusual audience.

After running to hug his wife and kids, Michael found there was a special message written on one of his son’s shirts. Though confused, he went on to read “Promoted to big brother…” Well, it obviously didn’t quite register with him what that meant. So he moved on to mom’s shirt, which had text on her tummy, and read aloud “Daddy’s little girl.”
At first, an entertained smile drew across his face, then his face dropped to awe as he realized what that meant: a third child was on the way! And his first baby girl. There’s nothing disingenuous about his wave of emotions. Michael goes from cluelessness to utter shock to tears of joy and the biggest smile you’ve ever seen.
It’s tough to watch his epiphany without getting a little emotional, too. Seeing Michael find out his family had already started growing is so candid and raw.
