Congratulations on both these guys for putting themselves out there on 60 minutes and for also being willing to have children and look after them. At the very least these two girls will grow up knowing that they were wanted by their partents as most hetrosexual couples can have a child either wanted or not. Keep up the good work guys and let everyone know how you and your kids are going. Andy
