It is just another example of how fatherhood differs from how it is portrayed on TV and in movies. If you're about to be a dad, especially for the first time, you are going to be standing there one moment (probably counting or yelling push) and the next thing you know there will be tears rolling down your eyes. A new life will enter the world and your tear ducts will drain. You might not see it coming. You won't be able to hide it or hold it back. It's going to happen, so don't be surprised. I was. No one told me this ahead of time.
Don't get upset. It's O.K. It would be more likely something was wrong if you didn't cry. Not to be irreverent, but I assume the emotion is similar to what God must have felt after he created the World and it was good.
For how He must may have felt the day after watch The Simpsons - Tree House of Horror VII: Genesis Tub (Season 8: Episode 1) in which Lisa created life and had to deal with the consequences. The Simpsons nerds out there know what I'm talking about.
