With all the bullshit of every day life sometimes we just need a great story.

https://www.popsugar.com/moms/Works-Pregnancy-Announcement-Dad-Who-Para…




Todd Krieg and Amanda Diesen just got engaged and announced a pregnancy on the same day — but there is so much more to celebrate for this couple who, in a way, have defied the odds to get to this point.

Amanda, formerly a therapist at a paralysis recovery center, met Todd in California in October 2015, a year after a dirt bike crash that ended his motocross career and paralyzed him from the chest down brought him to the center. The pair fell for each other during his time there, and once Todd finally admitted his feelings for his "cute therapist," the rest is history. He headed back to his home in Ohio and she moved cross country to be with him.

Although the couple has faced a number of struggles, an adorable photo posted to Reddit revealed that despite it all, they're expecting a baby. "Doctors had said it would be nearly impossible to conceive naturally due to Todd's injury, but here we are, 14 weeks pregnant," Amanda said on a website in which users can vote for her and Todd to win a dream wedding.

The cute and hilarious announcement photo features Amanda holding a sonogram photo and Todd, tongue out, with the words "It still works!" written in chalk above him. We can't help but be overjoyed for this sweet couple! See their announcement photo above, and the moment they found out they're having a baby boy below.

Congrats! I remember seeing some fast guy at Route 62 MX in little Martinsburg Ohio rip around the track later finding out his name was Todd Krieg. So smooth and fun to watch.

Awesome. I remember seeing a lot from Krieg on social media back then, he was a funny guy. As you can probably gather by the chalk writing.

There was a really good interview with Todd on an Ohio-based morning talk show called Rover's Morning Glory yesterday. It was really good, Todd seems like he's in a good place and you can tell he's a funny guy.His story of meeting Amanda was hilarious.

For anyone who wants to hear it, you can hear it on the iHeart Radio app, search for Rover's Morning Glory on Demand...you'll see episodes and look for the one named "The hookup, Todd Krieg...". Its 36 minutes in of the episode with 118 mins in it.
