Hosanna Grace Elizabeth


 On Friday, Nov 4, we got a text message early in the morning saying, "We have a baby girl!" Since the baby wasn't due until mid-November, and we thought it might be late, this was such a surprise!

When it was time for Ellie to get up, I went into her room. This was our conversation.
"Ellie, do you remember what was in Aunt Susie's tummy?"
"A baby."
"Guess what?"
Ellie says excitedly, "It popped out?"
"Yes, they had a baby girl. You have a little girl cousin!"
Ellie's immediate, and extremely cheerful response, "Are we going to Bangladesh now?"

Since the baby wasn't due so soon, I had been telling her we wouldn't be going back to Bangladesh until after Uncle Matthew's baby was born.... she didn't forget. :)

Since we were so close and had some flexibility in our schedule, we decided to drive up and celebrate with them later that day.

The babies that are just 5 weeks apart, Abraham and Hosanna.



Three cousins, Eliana, Abraham, and Hosanna.
