God’s Christmas gift to me and Dana!

Posted on December 22, 2008 by Tim Schmoyer | Print This Post Print This Post

I’ll just jump to the chase: I’M GOING TO BE A DADDY! That’s right! This Christmas the Lord has blessed me and Dana with the news of having a kid, due to arrive sometime around August 6th. We’re both super excited and can’t wait for August to be here. In the meantime, we’re doing our best to prepare for the huge transition (if that’s even possible).

Dana blogged about the announcement tonight, too. Read her post about the best Christmas gift.

Thanks to all of you who replied to my Twitter update yesterday when I first made the announcement online. Dana and I both appreciate it that you guys are joining us in our excitement.

    CONGRATULATIONS! Children do change your life—in a way that you don’t know how you ever existed without them. You will also be able to relate God’s love for us with a whole new understanding.

    Congrats Tim! This will be such an amazing experience for you guys!

    My only advice .. go to sleep .. seriously, just go to sleep now, and don’t wake up until August. You’re going to need every second of it, because you’re going to be a walking zombie for 1-2 months.
