      From DancinginHeaven May 9

      Thank you so much. I have decided to keep the baby. My da agrees. So I have a place to live. I am almost kinda excited about the baby, which is weird because when I found out, I just wanted it gone. But then I realized that it is half of me too. I love the baby already.
