Happy or Sad????
« on: July 23, 2008, 06:28:32 AM »
Hey guys I appreciate responses to my questions. I was really fired up and ready for my first encore, HOWEVER I found out yesterday that my wife is pregnant with our fourth child. :o it was not a planned thing. ::) We are in our thirties and she has 2 semesters left for a teaching degree so this is sort of messing with our plans a bit. I guess I can tell her I will need the gun to poach enough meat to feed us all now!! ;) I will still get one just have to wait a bit longer.   

thanks again,
Okieshooter

Be happy!  Children are a blessing.  Congratulations!

Definitely be Happy. A gun is an object that can be bought and sold; a child will be yours forever. I have too many guns, but yet, not enough. They have some great memories, but they do not compare to the ones I have with my children.
Great men have vision and resolve to make dreams come true.

At first I was more excited than my wife. She thought I would be upset and was worried about telling me. It will be harder on her finishing school but will be worth it in the end. She is starting to get excited now that she knows I am ok with it and not mad >:(. I want it to be healthy but if it is a boy it gives me an excuse to start another set of guns for him when he is older. ;D ;D Things happen for a reason and I am glad. I will get an Encore someday as I have wanted one for several years now.
Thanks,

The more kids you have, the more guns you MUST have for them to inherit.  Congrats,  Walt   :D

wife could have it done free through Indian tribe but she backed out just in case she wanted another (I guess she did :o) and it would cost me to go for the little snip snip procedure so I never went. maybe now I need to decide if I wanna pay for a snip or a 5th to raise :o
