This emotional video is so precious. Teresa Dooley wanted to surprise her six-year-old son Jake with the good news of her pregnancy. The Dooleys have struggled with infertility for three years after the stillborn birth of a second son.
She told Today.com: “Jake… has been asking, wishing, hoping and praying for a sibling for the last couple of years. We knew he would be overjoyed but never expected [the reaction we got.] I don’t think his dad or I really knew how much he wanted this.”
You can see Jake read a series of index cards before being handed a T-shirt that reads, ‘This guy is going to be a big brother.’
Jake is shocked and asks his mother, “You’re pregnant?” before running into her arms and breaking down into tears.
The sweet moment was captured on video and posted on Facebook, where it already has more than 506,200 views.
