"Some went down to the sea in ships, doing business on the great waters; they saw the deeds of the Lord, His wondrous works in the deep. For he commanded and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves of the sea. They mounted up to heaven; they went down to the depths; their courage melted away in their evil plight;
they reeled and staggered like drunken men and were at their wits' end. Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress. He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed. Then they were glad that the waters were quiet, and he brought them to their desired haven." Psalm 107:23-30

Amadeus Aurelia Haven 7-2-13

The worst of the physical stuff is over (note: cytotec is not for the faint of heart), and we have named our 7th child.

Amadeus: (Norwegian) The love of God. This is in honor of my husband, who's little sister used to call him "Ami" when he was little. He is proud of his Norwegian heritage and I am so proud to be his wife.

Aurelia: Golden. Aurelia is the name of the tune to the hymn "The Church's One Foundation" which is one of our most favorite hymns.

Haven: A safe place. Just because I liked it and I like the person that suggested it. :)

And now our prayer is that our sweet Amadeus will rest secure in the arms of Christ in His Golden Haven until we meet again.

We love you sweet baby.
