Grandbaby Number Seven

Today our expected grandson arrived.  Ryker Owen Iwashige was born this afternoon to Grant and Clarissa.  He weighed 7 lbs. 9 oz.

Clarissa wrote in an email "And just like that, in 2 1/2 hours and very promptly on his due date [he arrived]."  The baby seems healthy and the mother is fine too.  We're still hoping to get a peek at him at home this evening.

If Dad had lived nine days longer he would have had a chance to meet two more great grandsons--Ryker and Cameron.

Cameron was born to Christopher and Rachel last Friday.  My brother Ronald is Cameron's grandfather.  

I love that God is sending us these wonderful reasons to rejoice during a time when sorrow is still fresh and hard.
