SUPER GREAT NEWS

Hey everyone - DEBORAH IS PREGNANT AGAIN!!!! We are completely thrilled by the news we got a few weeks ago! In December of 2008, Deborah had an apple-sized cyst removed from her right ovary. We consulted with the obgyn, and he encouraged us to pursue pregnancy again after she recovered from the surgery if we were comfortable with that. He is an amazing Christian man, and we really trust his counsel.
Neither Deborah nor I had a real grid as to how long it would take for us to get pregnant. In fact, it was not promised to us that it would happen again. The first time we tried, it took three years, so we were PLEASANTLY surprised when after three months Deborah had a positive result of a pregnancy test at the beginning of this month!
The due date for 'baby kirkland' is December 5th, 2009. Deborah, Fields, and I could not be more grateful to Jesus for this new gift in our lives....He is good.

Ticket Time!

Today I purchased tickets to see U2 perform in atlanta later this year! If you did not know, I am a massive fan of u2. This is will be the fourth time that I will have attended their concert, and it will be Deborah's second time.

Just wanted everyone to know that despite the fact that my allergies are making my body miserable, my heart is happy thinking about u2 in october!
