Elsa Joy

















You may have already heard everything: 7lb, 15 oz (that is almost 8 lbs), 20.5 inches
1 May, 9:51 p.m. (we started timing contractions at 4 p.m. on May 30)
Thanks to everyone who prayed; it was much needed.
We are home, happy, healthy, more to follow...if I ever have time to blog again.
Praise the Lord once again for His kindness to us. Our cup overfloweth.

Oh I just love her! She already looks like Heidi. Praise God that she was born on May 1. This day is actually the hardest of the year for me, a proof that God both gives and takes away. You cannot imagine how happy I was to see that your little angel was born on this day in particular. Love you dearly and congrats!
