On Friday, March 12th, Robin and I got to see the first ultrasound of our baby. As of the 12th, he is 18 weeks old. The first thing I saw was him moving his arm. The joy I felt was overwhelming. I can’t wait to hold him. Robin’s due date is August 11th and that day will be so awesome. We never thought this would happen, but God keeps blowing our minds.We been trying to have a baby for two years and I never thought it would happen, but God is bigger than our doubts. When Robin was 13 or 14, doctors told her she would never have children because of her pcos. Doctors told my family that I would never lead a normal life. no school, no job, no family because of my cerebral palsy. I’m so thankful that the Lord don’t listen to man’s opinions when he’s planing our lives out. He took two people, who the world wrote off of ever having a family, put them together, and once again proved that He is greater than the world. I got to be honest, There’s a part of me who wants to tell the haters off, but I’m more concerned with sharing God’s grace to me. He is allowing me to become a daddy. It’s a prayer I prayed as a teen, and at 28 it’s coming true. I desire to be the daddy i never had. I pray that through Reese, there will be a generation with the last name Matthews who will know God. I’m thankful that it seems, that the things that plague my family name such as drug and alcohol addictions are coming to an end through Robin and I. It’s a prayer of mine that Reese will be a better man than me. I can lead him to become a man of God. He is a miracle. I can’t wait to see his face. Thankyou Jesus. You Rock!

Praise God! You and Robin are such wonderful people. I am so honored to have gotten to meet and know you over the past couple months, and look forward to getting to know you both more.
Having a child is such a blessing and I cannot wait to see the two of you as parents! You will be awesome! Reese will be very lucky to have the two of you as his parents.
Continuing to pray for you!
