Tervetuloa, Baby Girl

Meet Anja Kristiina. Born a few weeks ago at home (I did it!) and we've been quietly living in newborn bliss, soaking up every fleeting moment since.

Throughout my pregnancy, I had fervently prayed to God that He would extend much grace during labor. We did not opt to know the gender and so we had settled on both a boy and a girl name a few months back. However it wasn't until a week after her birth that I had the following realization – her name translated means "graciousness." And much grace was given indeed. All glory to the Lord above who has blessed me beyond measure.
