NASHVILLE, TN (January 6, 2010) – The Isaacs’ award winning female vocalist and mandolin player Sonya Isaacs and her husband, songwriter Jimmy Yeary, are anticipating the birth of their baby in July 2011.

“Baby I don’t see how I could love you anymore than I do today…” is the lyric written for Sonya in Jimmy’s number one Rascal Flatt’s hit “Why Wait.” The excitement of their announcement just added more love and inspiration for more hit songs.

Sonya says, “One of my greatest desires in life has been to be a mommy. I’ve loved being an aunt, and being so close to my nieces and nephews has given me a taste of what it’s like to love and raise a child. We are so excited and can’t even begin to express our thankfulness to the Lord for this great big little blessing! Thanks for your continued prayers as we continue on this amazing journey.”

Jimmy adds, “It’s hard to put into words how excited I am at the thought of having a child with the love of my life. It just doesn’t get any better.”
