On a day of international celebration, Louis Cameron Reber was born to Fred and Charlotte at 1:01 a.m. in Cleburne, Texas. It was such a blessed event, that the space shuttle Endeavour was launched, in his honor, roughly an hour and a half later. Presumably speaking of the shuttle, NASA engineers said the launch was picture perfect.
Louis was born at home, with father Fred, aunt Lauren, and 3 midwives in attendance. He weighed 6 lbs. 8 oz., and was 19-1/2 in. long. Everything went smoothly, and both mother and baby are doing well. Fred seems very well grounded, but the rest of us are in orbit. We are so thankful to Our Heavenly Father for extending our family in such a miraculous way. The shuttle is a marvel, but God’s creation trumps man’s every time!
We had the privilege of visiting our new grandson this afternoon, and took the first of many pictures.
