Welcome Benjamin Knox Finch!


Our newest member of the family, Benjamin Knox Finch, arrived on Tuesday [8/25] at 9:35 pm weighing 8.1 lbs & 20.5 inches long. Joy had such a pleasant experience during delivery & is recovering quite nicely. We had wonderful support from family/friends & are very thankful for all the love directed towards us. We were able to leave the hospital last night around 7 pm & introduce Knox to his new home. Our dog Bailey greeted him with a warm kiss & Brennan was super-excited to see his lil' bro. Now we are taking time to rest, enjoy hot potato soup, & be thankful. Living the dream!

Joy was receiving encouraging messages from friends prior to delivery (above).

Congratulations! New life is a wonderful reminder of the new birth we have in Christ. What a blessing God has granted your family. I look forward to meeting Knox, and watching him grow in love and grace that God will grant him through You and Joy.
