U.S. Marine commander Captain Gregory Veteto had been away from his home at Camp Pendleton in Southern California when his wife Shanelle and 16-month-old son Samuel found out that they would gain an additional member of the family, KTVU reports.
The commander’s wife decided to surprise her husband by giving him a “gift” that would reveal the baby’s gender. After some planning with a friend, she decided to send her husband a football filled with colored powder to remind him of his days as a punter for his college football team.

Congrats to the Veteto family.
A Company sized crowd of “Toxic masculinity”, and a huge cloud of Pink. Gotta love it.
