Well, you had better be! LOL! Sorry, that was a little dramatic but I couldn't resist!
When David and Keslie were engaged, Lydia would say this little phrase over and over again:
"Dadid and Teslie married? Babies?" We have been telling her each time she repeats this phrase that if it is God's will then there will be babies!
Monday night God worked out events in His perfect way and had dad home instead of working on the house (you have to understand that almost EVERY night he has been working till late at night, so him being home was amazing). David called and asked if he and Keslie could come over to print some things off on our printer. We were all in the familyroom reading the Bible when they arrived and before much could be said David said that he didn't really need to print anything off but they had come for an entirely different purpose! Then he told us with a radiant smile on his face and holding his wife's hand that they were going to have a baby!!!!! I'm not really sure what happened after that because I was so happy, surprised, shocked (but not really), excited, and ecstatic! There were many hugs and lots of tears going around. Keslie has a baby in her womb! Wow! My little niece or nephew! My brother's child! I'm an aunt! Yippy!
This little one is making:
11 people an aunt or uncle for the first time
4 people grandparents for the first time (Both sets of parents, obviously)
4 ladies a great-grandma for the first time ( David's one grandmother, both Keslie's grandmothers and a step-grandma)
2 gentlemen a great-grandpa for the first time ( Both of Keslie's grandfathers)
1 gentleman a great-great-grandpa for the first time (David's dad's grandpa)
1 Lady a great-great-grandma (Keslie's mom's grandma)
First we unite the Fairchilds and then they grow! We praise the Lord for this new family!
