The best gifts can't be found in stores.
Courtney Solstad and her husband adopted a baby boy, Nathan, last week, and were able to take him home in time for Christmas. They decided to surprise their three daughters with the new addition to the family by placing Nathan under the Christmas tree and filming their reactions.
According to Solstad's Facebook post, she and her husband told the girls they were out Christmas shopping, came back and told them that they "had a gift to share."
(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));The girls knew nothing about Nathan until this. We met them at the door and told them that we had been out Christmas shopping and got them a gift to share...and it was under the tree! #Solstad6Posted by Courtney Solstad on Saturday, December 5, 2015
Their excited (but very quiet) reactions were all that new parents could hope. "I'm going to wet my pants," one girl said.
