Telling Josh

I knew that telling Josh was going to be lots of fun and could be very interesting.  Like I said before I'm not very creative. I didn't want to just blurt it out but I didn't have much time to get fancy with something before he got home from work.  So I made do with what I had...a gift bag and some tissue.  I put the pregnancy tests in a gift bag and when he got home from work I told him I bought him something.  He was all, "Oh you really shouldn't have."  When he pulled out the tissue paper and seen those tests his face was frozen. He looked at me and said, "Are you pregnant?!" Of  course I said yeah and he followed with, "Are you sure? Maybe we should buy a different brand?" After a minute of letting it soak in he was  extremely happy and ready to tell the  world!

At first we decided to keep it secret for a while...needless to say that lasted less than 10 hours and we told my parents.  The next day we told Jim and Julie and after I went to the doctor on Wednesday everyone else was soon to follow.  Secrets can't be kept in this small town anyway so whats the point in even trying?

I can't imagine spending my life with anyone other than Josh. He is such a wonderful husband and I can only imagine what an excellent father he is going to be.  I know there will be times when we mess up as parents but I'm looking forward to the challenge.  As long as we have each other for support and God to lean on I know we will make it  through. 

God has blessed us with this little miracle  inside of me,there is no question about it and we promise to raise all our children to believe and follow the word  of God.
