Farewell Dinkdom!! Hello Parenthood!!

Goodbye European tourist trip. Goodbye Extreme vacation (mount climbing in Appalachians). Good Bye sports car. Good Bye big piece of chicken.


This could be the last time I write to you as, Justin Marek, husband to Brandy Marek and owner of two dogs. Today we go to the doctors and the twins could be born today.
I am so nervous, excited , worried, prepared as can be, unprepared as can be, ready and praying for the boys' and Brandy's health.

I look back at the first section I wrote and I will still do most of it. If you know me... well, you'll know that I will always try for the big piece of chicken.

I have been told by people that I will never get a full nights sleep until their grown. That we don't have enough help. That we have to talk to a lactation nurse or breast feeding won't work well. That we need two of everything. That we need to get them on certain schedules. I looked up "screwed" in the wikionary and having twins was not in there, so I would say there is a chance for us yet.

... What I was curious about was why I don't remember anybody telling us to pray. Nobody told us to turn to God for the answers. Only my brother said "It's crazy being a father, the baby is born and you just start doing it, like Mr. Mom!! What a beautiful ability God gave us." I will not take for granted all of the prayers that been said for us. Thank you everyone who has prayed for us. So you know, We too are praying.

Doctor's appt. @ 9:15am

Praise God in all His Glory for this beautiful gift. I am going to be a father!!Gods' plan for each of us is revealed the closer we walk to him.
