Student Reactions

Today I told Linda's class that she was pregnant.  Here's how the conversation went:

Mr. Moua:  Do you guys want to know a secret?

Matt: (shouts) Mrs. Moua's pregnant?

Sarah: (stood up) I knew it! I knew it!

Connie: (looks around in astounishment) Nah ah!  No she's not!

Youa:  (looks around with huge smile on face)

Jonathan:  (looks at his book because he doesn't pay attention)

Ah:  I knew it!

Kids in unison: No she's not!

Mr. Moua:  Why do you think she's been going to the bathroom alot?

Kids:  (reacted as if all the pieces of the puzzle have come together) Yeaaaaaa!

Then Mrs. Moua pokes her head from the door window while all the kids start to freak out, hoping that she hasn't heard.

Yes, I spoiled the news to them.  Some still don't believe me or the fact that she's pregnant. 

becoming a father...

I am excited for becoming a father. I have a hard-working father who loves others more than himself. I have great friends who are also fathers that have been an example for me to learn from as well. I haven't really thought a lot about fatherhood yet but I can't wait to be a father. There's a lot I want to teach my kids. Aside from pouring love and wisdom into them, I want them to massage my feet and step on my backs. I pray that God continues to mold me into becoming a Godly husband and father. I don't really have a preference when it comes to boy or girl. Linda has a name set for a girl. I should think of one for a son. I will be in prayer about that. I'm gonna read stories in the Bible pertaining to father/son relationships. i think that's all for now. here's a few things I'd like to do with my kids:

1. have them eat papaya salad at an early age.

2. teach them how to beatbox.

3. take them hiking.

4. take them walking in the rain. and perhaps even take with us a bar of soap for a quick shower in the rain.

by the way, Linda is pregnant. she's starting to show. keep us in prayer.
