It is the most wonderful week all year. If you are the Little, then you are showered with gifts, food, and love. If you are the Big, then you dress up each night in the most top-secret disguises, practice placing all of the gifts out, and then shower your Little with more love than they could ever imagine. You all know what week I am talking about: Big/Little Week.
Here is Big/Little Week as told by "Friends."
You wait to find out who your little will be.
You worry if anyone will even put you down on their preferences.
Finally, the time is here and you find out who your little is. You start thinking about how you can spoil them all week.
Next, you pick out the perfect outfit to make sure that you do not reveal your identity because it is officially time to deliver their gifts. You try to place everything out as quickly as humanly possible to eliminate the possibility of your little catching you.
The next morning, you see them walking to class and you play it cool and act casual.
The excitement builds and builds throughout the week, but so does the lack of sleep.
You are counting down the hours, minutes, and seconds until the reveal.
It's finally here! Today is the day!
You go to reveal, wait behind the sheet, and, on the count of 10, the sheet is lifted and you see your Little. You scream. You hug.
You take perfect family pictures with your new addition and you wonder how you ever lived your life without them.
I love you a lot, little one!
Until next week,
XOXO
