The wholesome video began with the parents-to-be sitting on a blanket with a black box in front of them. Lead held up a simple white notecard that read “Baby Smith” and explained, “We’re about to open and find the gender.”

Before the big reveal, they both took one final guess on if they think they baby will be a boy or a girl. Both admitted they believe it will be a girl.

“I’ve definitely been a little undecided,” Leah stated, but was quickly corrected when Smith chimed in to say “you have not been undecided. You think it’s a girl.”

“I think girl from the beginning, but recently I’m nervous that I’m going to be wrong,” she clarified.

They held hands while taking a few seconds to pray together over the box, thanking the Lord for this blessing before them.

“We thank you God that you trust us with this baby. Help us prepare our hearts. Boy or girl, God, we’re just so, so, so grateful. We just pray to help the child that’s yours already,” said Smith.

After taking a few more moments to soak in the anticipation, the couple counted down from three before finally opening the box. Their faces immediately lit up with shock and excitement as they revealed a tiny pink onesie inside, confirming that they are expecting a baby girl.

“We’re having a girl,” Leah said pure joy radiating from her voice.
