I am going to be an uncle!

My sister called me today to tell me she is pregnant and that I am going to be an uncle. I'm very excited. We haven't had anything like this in the family to date. My wife and I don't have kids. My wife's family hasn't had any children in recent years. Among our little circle it's the first member of a new generation. All the "children" (us) are in our late 20s to mid 30s.

I'm sharing this here because I needed to shout it out to someone and my sister won't let me. I totally get why. She's worried that something will go wrong. She wants to wait further into the pregnancy before news of this spreads beyond immediate family. I respect that. But that leaves me hanging. I needed to talk about this to someone, anyone, and she told me really early so I have to hold my tongue for a really really long time.

But my Steemit network and my family network have no connection points. So....

I AM GOING TO BE AN UNCLE!!!!! AHHH!!!!!! WOOOOOO!!!!!!!
