I don't use the word awesome very much. I once heard the Hope College worship leader, Dwight Beal, say that the word in its original meaning and usage is to be reserved for the things that truly show the awe-inspiring nature of God (or something like that). Ever since that time, I use it sparingly.But, as you can see from this photo, I am using the word to describe this incredible thing called life--new life. Christie and I are expecting December 14. She is 11 weeks along and is actually feeling pretty good. We appreciate your prayers at this time!

Yay!
Woohoo! Congratulations! I remember Dwight's message about the word "awesome" and this is definitely an appropriate usage... possible the *most* awesome thing we can experience in our lives on earth - the creation of a new one! I hope everything goes smoothly.
YEAH! OH my goodness! How exciting! You are going to be a great dad! And Christie will be a great mom! Yeah Yeah Yeah!!!
