Unexpected News

Wednesday night my brother changed my life. The conversation went something like this...

Him: "I hope you are ready to be an uncle"
Me: "Better not be you"
Him: "Well, it's going to happen in January. Due date is January 3rd and we're having a boy"
Me: "Are you going to get married?"
Him: "No"
Me: "You are going to tell Mom & Dad"
Him: "Yes"
Me: "Good because you don't want me to tell them"

So the short of it is I'm going to be an uncle. My brother and the mother of the child (whom he is not dating, does not plan to date nor plan to marry) expect a boy in early January. Thankfully my parents didn't let my brother off too easy but the fact is, his life has gone down the drain and he's taking all of us along for the ride. I certainly hope he has learned a big, big lesson from all of this.
