God's Precious Gift

The main reason for flying home for 2 weeks was to await the birth of our first grandchild. Waiting those last few days was not easy for any of us - least of all the expectant parents. When the doctor said that the baby would likely come early, he raised all of our expectations and when the due date came and went, waiting became even more difficult, especially for Tara. But finally after a long, long labour, this precious baby boy was born at 9:46am on Wednesday, February 10, 2010. After crying to announce his arrival, he spent the next 2 hours, just looking around and around at all the people who had come to celebrate his arrival and take his picture! Two sets of grandparents and Uncle Derek were there and he was much intrigued with this new world that he had just entered. Only after he nursed, did he fall asleep.
Greg and Tara had some names picked out but did not name him until the next day because they had to get to know him better to see which name best suited him. He came home the day after his birth and at dinner that evening Greg and Tara told his new Oma and Opa (Jack and Mary) and his new Mammo and Daddo (Andy and Joan McEvoy) that his name will be Dylan Patrick Jagt!
God is faithful and good. Little Dylan is the answer to many prayers over many years and we are all so thankful he is here safely and healthy. Praise God!!
