Most fiction I've read that I'd classify as domestic fiction has been by women with a female protagonist. While I have no idea about Sweeps McNulty's gender, "Driveway... To Maturity" one of the rare domestic fiction short stories I've read that revolves around a male.
The male in this case is coming to terms with the sudden responsibility he is feeling now that he has a baby on the way. The feeling is very well captured and the voice is quite believable.
Only minor issue I have is with the title which is a bit precious and too on the nose.
