It's a boy!

In mid May we had an addition to our family. A baby boy! We named him Fiodor. The name means "A gift from God". He is truely a gift.

Shortly before the labor I read these encouraging words in the Bible:
"A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world" (John 16^21).

And the labor was quick and easy.
