Update: Baby #3

Ladies and gentlemen,

presenting Baby #3!

We have another girl!

Praise the Lord!

I guess we'll be following after our friends, The Frick's. :-) Hopefully I won't be having any twins, though! :-D I know they're fun, but that's a little more than I can handle mentally at this point! :-D

Jeramy and I have chosen Shiphrah for her name. (Exodus 1) She stood against an evil dictator, choosing rather to fear God and preserve life. You go, girl! So many girls today are thrown in the trash or otherwise left for dead (especially in China). They might otherwise consider this girl a failure because she's our third girl in a row. Even in America where the policy is generally: none, one or two children and no more, and "a girl for me and a boy for you and thank the Lord, we're finally through!" We are not at all disappointed that we're having another girl! We're excited and thrilled! We've seen her face and we know her name. Her life is precious to us because God took the time to create her in His image.
