Just found out the sex of our new baby yesterday. Wooooo! As many of you know, I basically had no parents since I was around 4. Mom died of an overdose, dad was a jailbird for damn near ALL reasons to be there....spent a good bit of my life in foster care. blah blah blah...etc We already have a beautiful daughter together and now, just like most men want....a son! I've prayed and spoke to the skies for most of my life, thinking I was possibly speaking with someone who could help me thru life, guide me to where I wanted to go. Always felt like I had someone pushing me when I wanted to run, somehow things always worked when I needed it to....my ego says its cause of all the hard work I put in but, in some weird way, I like to think its the people who aren't here anymore that help too. I lost my grandmother recently, she was the gift of my life...she got to see and enjoy my daughter until she was 2....now she has a grandson to watch over as well. Im sure shes elated and will bless his life also. Im the last line in my family name, well, not anymore!!!! If theres anyone out there who is thinking of having a family, do it, it'll make you a better person and bring out your true self.......atleast it did for me. Ive been lost and wondering for 32 years till I had my first child. Lifes amazing right now.....just had to share. take care all
Congratulations man! I love my daughter as much as one man can and beyond, but I too was super excited with having a son! Go for it GK. We are about to have a whole generation of little GK kids.
NICE!!!! We all have someone looking after us. Your Grandmother seems to be giving all her help. Enjoy it. As you know, having kids is awesome. Doesn't matter, boy or girl, as long as they are shown love and attention, they'll steal your heart. The only difference is you can be a little rougher with a boy. Oh yeah, and hopefully you won't have to shop for dresses with him. (you didn't think I was going to be all sentimental, did you?)
