The HUGE Announcement...

So last week I said I'd be posting BIG NEWS on the blog here within a week. I know you've been waiting in anticipation, checking the blog multiple times a day, just dying to know, right? Well, here it is:

Johanna and I are expecting! We've got a baby on the way! That's right folks, I'm gonna' be a DAD! Johanna is 12 weeks pregnant and to say that we are beyond excited would be the understatement of the year. We cannot wait and are so pumped about being parents. And the fact that God would allow us to be entrusted with another life is absolutely humbling, amazing, and even a little scary! Even as I type this it's still all a little overwhelming. God is so rich in his mercy and grace to us and is so good to us.

So now you're in the know. You've got the scoop. Feel free to share it with those we know who might not read this blog. And pray for us. If you follow me on twitter, you know that Johanna has already had a couple hospital stays. You can read about that on her blog here. Every day, several times throughout the day, I pray and ask God for a healthy mom and a healthy baby. I'd sure appreciate you joining me in that prayer. And while you're praying, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to pray for the kid that will have me for a dad...there's no telling what adventures await him or her!

Congratulations again! There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that you will be an awesome dad! My only concern is this: You'll still be able to babysit Jaron and Phillip during the summer, right? :-D

congrats bro... even though i was one of the lucky few to find out awhile back.

and having a wife and now a child on the way still doesn't make me think you are any less gay than before.

your brother.
