An Invitation to Our Around the World Family
It's exactly nine weeks until our little boy's due date - April 10, 2022. My prediction is that he will come a week late, just like his brother, and I'll go into labor on the Saturday night before Easter Sunday. I told Chris to get a backup plan ready for church!
His name is Wyatt Christopher Ladd.
Wyatt - Strong in the world or brave in battle
Christopher - Bearer of Christ
Our little guy is already known in heaven as bravely bearing the name of Christ, no matter what this world has to offer him or his generation. He already has more love, blessings and promise than he could expend in all the days of his life. We can't wait to meet him!
We already love Wyatt fiercely. Benjamin covers him with kisses, and we talk about him like he's always been a part of the family. Wyatt loves the sound of his daddy's voice, and Chris actually gags when I tell him I can feel his feet or elbows poking around in me.
One of the greatest gifts (and toughest tensions) this little man will be born into is family and friends spread throughout the world. WE MISS YOU. We are so at home here and completely surrounded by love. AND WE MISS YOU FARAWAY PEOPLE. We are hosting an "online baby shower" to bridge the gap. Our heart is to invite you tangibly into welcoming baby Wyatt into the world OR help you know how to pray for specific needs. We are already making great claims for Wyatt's place in this world. It seems only fitting that he would enter it surrounded by love from around the world.
