Yesterday we welcomed our baby daughter, Kathryn Joy, into the world. We are so grateful to God for his great grace and help, for bringing life into the world is always a battle against the forces of darkness. Danielle and Kate are doing very well. Kate slept much of her first day in the world, but is growing increasingly alert and interested in her surroundings (or at least the blurs of light we’re told she sees at this stage). Please praise God with us and pray for a quick and joyful recovery for us all. We are looking forward to spending the next several days together focused on the some of the highest priorities of life, namely family.
Kathryn Joy means “pure joy”.


I’m sure there’s no connection, but wow! Joy! :)
Congratulations to you all! She’s beautiful! I can’t wait to hear more.
