Brought into the world safely by his heavenly Father, caught by his earthly father, loved by a very thankful family.  His name means “gift of God” —- and he certainly is!

Welcome, Son!

Behold, children are a gift of the Lord;

The fruit of the womb is a reward.

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,

So are the children of one’s youth.

How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;

They shall not be ashamed,

When they speak with their enemies in the gate.

Psalm 127: 3-5
