All of a sudden...
Dear all,
I'm just over the moon! My wife just walked in (after a short visit to the local GP) with a GREAT BIG smile across her face. I thought nothing of it, just that she probably passed by 'WydRyd' this glorious morning and wanted to go out for a cruise somewhere  All of a sudden, she springs it on me! Wifey: "Guess What?" Me: "Errrr... U wanna go for a cruise???" Wifey: "I'm 7 weeks pregnant!!!" Me (springing up from my chair): "OMG!!!!!!!!" This is the best news! I'm absolutely blown away  I thank GOD for blessing us with another baby! Whoooooooooo Hooooooooooo!!! Sorry, just thought I'd tell the world :P

Right Merv - how the heck did you find time for THAT?
Great news - very best to your wife, and trust that the next 29 weeks go as smoothly as the first seven. Regardz,

It's gotta be the cars!!!
I walked in the house the other night, sat down at the computer to check in on the Pelican Site, and my wife walked up and showed me a 'positive' on a home pregnancy tester!!! Its our first child!! This child is very lucky - someday he/she will hold the keys to a beautiful 911 - in about 30 years. Congrats Merv!!!

Merv:
Congratulations to you and your wife! I wish you the very best in the months and years ahead. You're gonna have a spoiled kid that may one day never be too impressed with a simple 300hp Porsche. And to you Randy, your best days are ahead of you, trust me. I also wish the best to you and your better half in the months and years ahead. Also Congrats to Michael! Wow, sure looks like some folks have been busy doing more than just surfing the Pelican board. In my life, FWIW, there has not been a more satisfying and gratifying experience than raising my most beautiful 3 1/2 year old daughter. There is something very special that happens when you have a kid that can never be explained to the folks without 'em. Best to all of you! Regards, Kurt '98 Daughter w/ all OEM Parts and a Heart of Gold Last edited by kstar; 05-10-2002 at 09:35 PM.. |

Congratulations Merv.
Just don't sell the Porsche because it's not big enough! The older child will NEVER, EVER forgive their younger sibling for making their parents sell the Porsche :P Ask me how i know! |
