The Birth of Our Baby Girl!

Generally this blog is only about theological and cultural topics.  Today, it will be about a life-changing event in my household.  Our daughter has arrived!

Emmanuelle Hope was born this morning.  She weighed 7 pounds 5 ounces and was 20 and 1/2 inches long.  She has long dark hair and she definitely looks like a Selmon!

I am so thankful that everything went well.  A child born in one's "old age" is such a blessing.  M.E. did a great job in labor, and she appears to be recovering well.  She gets a good vacation now so she can rest, recuperate, and get to know her child!

Here are some pictures:
