We are thank the Lord for increasing the size of our family by giving us little Anastasia Grace. We went to the midwife’s Friday evening to see if Christina was ready. After looking at her the midwife said that she wasn’t quite ready. Because the other 3 children were already spending the night with my parents Christina and I took the opportunity to go out for a little date. When we got home Christina took a dose of castor oil and by 5:45 am she was beginning to feel some light contractions.
We got to the midwife’s at about 7:00 am. After receiving some antibiotics Christina was ready to go. The midwife broke her water at 7:50 am and by 7:54 she was holding little Anastasia in her arms!
We praise the Lord for a quick a problem free birth. Christina and the three youngest are home. I had to leave on Saturday afternoon to speak at Trinity Baptist in Yakima. Naomi came with me to keep me company. We will be returning tonight.
