MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) -The Blaze reports that the enthusiastic little boy asked his mother, "Is it in your belly now?" after an ultra-sound image of his baby brother was shown to him.
Bromby then replied, "Yes, it's really in there." The adorable boy who cannot simply contain his excitement over the news told his mom, "I hope you are not joking."
To assurance she was serious, Bromby said, "I'm not joking."
The Scunthorpe Telegraph reported Bromby uploaded a video of their amusing exchange on Facebook. The video boasts over 6 millions hits since its upload and went viral overnight.
Bromby told The Blaze, "I was expecting him to take it well because he has been pestering me about having a brother or a sister."
She further reiterated that her son primarily wanted a sister but later on he learned that he cannot choose. From his uncontrollable excitement over the news, he seemed to be fine with having a little brother instead.
