I hope you'll all forgive me if this is the wrong place to put this, but it is an introduction and definitely a cause for celebration. :)

Some of you asked me to be sure to let you know when my baby arrived. Well... he's here. Kellen Defender was born November 2. Hubby and I are delighted and so thankful!

P.S.- Kellen means "mighty warrior" and was originally the name of a character in a story I haven't written yet. It's great when one of your characters comes to life in such a real way!! ;)

Wow, I love that name. Epic. May he always be a mighty warrior for God.

That is so great, Perry! So exciting. :dieshappy: And...epic name--to be expected of course, for a writer's child. ;)

In a word (okay, several): Congratulations! May God bless you and "Dad" as you parent this little soul. :)

*dances* Hooray! :dieshappy: CONGRATULATIONS!!! When do we get pictures? :D
I already said this via PM, but that is probably the most epic name I have ever heard; it definitely came from a writer. ;)

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
