Strong Carrier of Truth

August 29, 2019

I’m not sure how I could possibly be old enough but I am now a grandma four times over.  

Nathan and Meagan welcomed Andrew Ryder into the world on August 27.  (His name means strong carrier of truth.)

He weighed 7lbs. 2 oz. and was 20 inches long.  In Meagan’s words, “He has daddy’s white-blond hair and mommy’s lips. ”

Sounds perfect to me!

Meagan labored quite a bit at home so was only at the hospital three hours before he was born. 

Of course, you know I have to post a few pictures!

So anyway, just wanted to share that happy news with you.
