I have some news. I am going to be a dad, again.
Sometime around the first part of September my girlfriend will be giving birth to my child. As I read the line I just wrote I still don't think it has quite set in, because it gave me goose bumps. Either way I have about 5 months to get my shit together. It is one thing to have an adopted child because we do get minor help from the government for him. But to have my own kid is going to make things even tougher. I just know one thing, and that is something has to change.
The real reason I wanted to write about this subject is because there are so many feelings that went through my head at the time I found out, and I had to share a few of them...
Holy shit, what is the accuracy on those tests?
I wonder if he or she will have blue eyes like mine?
How am I ever going to be able to provide for a family when I still feel like a kid myself?
Ok it is official, my parents know I have sex. (and that is probably the funniest/weirdest)
What names do I like?
The list is infinite, and I as I sit and type more and more come to my head. But I think that is the great part, the anticipation. I feel like a kid wanting to know what my present is. On April 4 we go to the doctor, and get to take a little peak at what's inside, and find out if it's a boy or a girl!
