Update from Josh and Tami Harris

I received the following from Tami just a couple hours ago. She asked me to pass it along to everyone here!

"Hey everyone at BG! Just thought we were due for another update for those who are interested. Josh is still doing well. As many of you know, he was on the active roster here with the Ravens for the first game, and then moved to the practice squad. His position on the team has remained the same since then....He's still on the practice squad patiently waiting his chance to be on the roster. Kyle Boller and Kordell Stuart are still the 2 QBs in front of him. Josh remains a HUGE supporter of BG and talks to Omar and some of the other guys after every game on the phone. He's really proud of Omar and is glad that everyone else can see for themselves what he's been saying all along about Omar's talent. We're keeping hope alive that we'll be able to make it to a game this year. He's only off from work on Tuesdays so it makes it difficult to make the trip. But we haven't given up yet. The biggest news in the Harris household, however, is not related to football. After only 2 months of "trying," God has blessed us with our first child!! Our little "super athlete" will be born in late May! We couldn't be more happy and excited and are constantly entertaining thoughts of what an athletic freak of nature this kid will be! ;)

Please keep our growing family in your prayers, and I'll try to share some of the fun stories about Josh as a dad in the making! Take Care!"

Awesome!!!

Let's shoot for the moon and figure on both. Knowing how such things work, the Harris youth (or ute if you're a fan of Joe Pesci) will eschew athletics for a career as a concert violinist

As long as the child does something that makes him/her happy thats really all that matters.

No NFL Europe for us this spring. Josh doesn't want to be leaving the country with a wife who will be 7 mos. pregnant come NFLE season.

That's probably the best idea :D I'm glad to hear everything is going well for your family as well! Just tell Josh to be patient because his time will come soon enough and he will have lots of Brown and Orange still supporting him!

Glad to here Josh has his priorities straight and will be sticking around with you during the pregnancy. And by the way, the Toledo game is on a Tuesday night if you two want to come to a game. :D

What terrific news. We've been praying for Josh! Now we'll have to add a "thank you" for this good news and ask for an uneventful pregnancy.

Blessings to all!
