Yo, Baby!

This is baby Henry. He was born just two weeks ago to my sweet friend, Sara. Henry arrived the way most little ones do these days when something is amiss. Much to Sara's dismay, he made his long awaited debut by C-section. Despite Sara's dangerous high blood pressure, baby boy came safely into the world. Giving birth is miraculous, especially when so many things can go wrong and sometimes do. Each tiny life is precious, a gift from the Lord. Thankfully, both Sara and baby Henry are doing well, getting to know each other, and falling into the rhythm of a new life together.

I think this picture says it all. Henry's a tough little guy! Though he arrived a bit beat up, the doctor extracting him with something akin to a suction cup, he's here. His life, perfectly ordained by the heavenly Father, is just beginning and with a little attitude. There's a Divine plan for this little guy and we're looking forward to watching God's purposes unfold for him and his beautiful Momma. Their future is full of hope because of the kindness, mercy, and great love of the Savior. If Henry could talk, he might say, "Yo, baby! I'm here and I'm ready to make my mark on the world!" You go, baby boy!    

YO, BABY!
