I have a new little nephew hoping to be born in a few months. His name is Jack. I saw his ultrasound picture today – his curved head and his round belly and what looked like bubbles being blown from his mouth. I also saw his undeniable male-hood. (Apparently he’s not as shy about showing off his private parts as his cousin Matthew was.)
We pray for Jack’s safe journey into this world. We pray for a miracle. We pray for continued hope. Please pray with us. We need a boy in the family – a boy who will live and live well. Who will tease his sisters and cousins. And make his daddy grin.
Here’s the beginning of Jack’s story – a story we hope will be long and interesting.
