On Thursday, June 24 at 7:44 P.M. - we welcomed our son into the world - Kase Michael Sietstra. He weighed in at 8 lbs 11 ozs and 21" long with a beautiful head of black hair! This has been the most challenging and awesome journey that we have ever been on and it was pure joy to finally see this child that has been growing for 9 months and to finally meet the fruit of God's faithfulness!
Kase (pronounced like just in "case") gets his name from Keith's grandfather whose name was Cornelius Schelling, but went by the name Case. Cornelius also has biblical roots in Acts Chapter 10. We pray that our Kase will follow in his great-grandfather's footsteps and grow into a man of God who is full of the spirit and love! His middle name - Michael - he shares with his daddy.
We really are just in awe of the goodness of God. When our infertility problems arose nearly 3 years ago, we just didn't know what plan or path God had for us and our desire for a future family. He has proven himself good and faithful over and over again during this time and we just want to acknowledge that it is only by His love and goodness we are able to celebrate this joyous time in our lives. We feel like we have a very special story to share with others about our journey and also an incredible story to share with our son someday!
Enjoy some of the many pictures that Kase has already adorned our home in:
