Tuesday's Child

Monday's child is fair of face
Tuesday's child is full of grace
Wednesday's child is full of woe
Thursday's child has far to go
Friday's child is loving and giving
Saturday's child works hard for a living
But the child born on the Sabbath Day
Is fair and wise and good and gay.

Today we welcomed the newest member into our family. Kate Marjorie was born at 11:18 am and weighed 7 pounds, 12 ounces and measured 19.5 inches. She surprised us all by arriving 10 days before her due date. She is beautiful and the kids adore her already.



The name Kate means "pure" and is an attribute that we hope will characterize her life. Marjorie is the name of Elizabeth's maternal grandmother who passed away many years ago, but is still loved dearly.



We praise God for this wonderful gift of a daughter and pray that she will love Him with all her heart and serve Him all her days.
