Introducing Our Tie Breaker

On Septuagesima Sunday, we were blessed with our 5th son.

After a very fast labor, Kilian was born via a primary c-section at 5:31 a.m.

He was a healthy 9 lbs 2.4 oz and measured 20 3/4 inches.

We are all in love with our quiet baby boy.

I look at Kilian for hours on end in complete awe, thanking God for him and Our Blessed Mother for her intercession.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, my mother;

to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions,

but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

Thank you to family and friends, near and far, who prayed for our baby boy.
