Talking Best reason I EVER had for a smoke

A little over an hour ago, wife tells me she's got an early anniversary gift (it's our 1 year in 2 weeks) for me. She gets me to close my eyes, she shuffles around, then I open them only to find a "Positive" pregnancy test!

I'm going to be a dad! Holy Crap!

Not five minutes later she has to leave for work, and gives me instruction to not tell anyone. I manage to say "Uh...okay" and then do the only thing I can think of...smoke a pipe. (somewhat ironically I smoked a Brigham blend called "Solitude")

Now I'm sitting here not really allowed to tell anyone. But I figure...hey...you guys couldn't possibly fall into the communication ban, right? And frankly, I'm busting at the seams to tell someone!!!

Re: Best reason I EVER had for a smoke

If my wife did that to me I'd probably drop dead on the spot!

But congrats! Definitely a reason to celebrate with a good pipe!

Re: Best reason I EVER had for a smoke

Congrats Dad!
Being a dad’s a bit like this - a nickel of hardship, a dollar of bliss.
New Dad, New Dad, one day soon, your eyes will bulge and your heart will swoon
New Dad, New Dad, it is true - you will NEVER know a fuller you.

Re: Best reason I EVER had for a smoke

Thanks so much guys!

It's all rather overwhelming. This wasn't exactly in "the plan." Though I'm terribly happy about it. I guess next Father's day I'll be able to start the tradition of the young one picking me out a new pipe. A better tradition than ties, don't ya think?
