Josiah is here!
Announcing the long awaited arrival of Josiah Seth Paden! He was born by c-section on December 20th at 9:35am and was 6 pounds and 18.9 inches long. Everything went well and we were able to go home on the 23rd to spend Christmas at home. Thank you all for your prayers, we know many of you were concerned. I am up and able to get around just fine (despite a little pain). The kids did well with my Mom (Nana) at our SEND guest house in Manila while we were in the hospital. They are very excited to have a baby brother. Caleb asked yesterday if we get to keep him forever! We have a busy month ahead of getting ready to move, finding a house, and getting well and rested. We would apriciate your continued prayers for this and will write another prayer update soon. Blessings, Gilmer, Julie, Nhaya, Caleb, and Josiah Paden
