The Moment of Truth
It was finally time for Matt to come home. He was among the many sailors who came home in San Diego. Rebecca had devised a master plan to reveal what she had been keeping from Matt all this time. But if something was to go wrong, it would turn into total chaos. She made use of her kids to distract him and also by holding a “Welcome Home” sign, to keep him from knowing.
The Revelation
So when Matt finally got to them, he hugged and kissed his children first. Then, he made his way towards Rebecca to give her a big hug. At that exact moment, she knew it was time to strike. When Matt had gotten as close as an arms-length, she finally decided to reveal the big secret she had been keeping from her husband. This was definitely going to give Matt the biggest shock of his life.
That Moment? Priceless
“My heart was racing,” Rebecca explains when it was time for her to let the cat out of the bag. She then proceeds to explain what actually went down during the big reveal. “I stood back and let the kids run to him. I hung back for a minute, and then he reached into me to give me a hug and then I dropped it. He just stood there in shock. He didn’t know what was going on.”
A Prank?
It was obvious that Matt initially got very confused. At one point he even thought this was some sort of prank and that his darling wife was just pulling his leg. Do you think you would be able to keep such a huge secret from someone else? It must have taken a lot of effort and planning for it to remain a secret. Matt was beyond shocked to see that his wife actually succeeded with her master-plan.
Perfect Reaction
The three elder Daugherty kids were the first to run over to embrace and welcome their uninformed dad. Then, Matt turned his face to the person on the side to give them more hugs. Just then his wife Rebecca decided to hold a huge sign with the words, ‘Welcome home baby daddy,’ written on it, over her belly. She waited for him to give her his undivided attention.
The Huge Sign
So after Matt greeted and hugged everyone else that was present there, waiting for him, he made his way towards his wife. So just then, Rebecca seized the moment and held out the big sign. She then asked him a question, “Do you like my sign?” She then decided to show him her growing stomach, revealing the big secret that had been kept from Matt all along.
