Story
Many of you have prayed for us to get pregnant again after we lost Baby Poppyseed in 2021. We could not be more happy for this beautiful answer to prayer! Samuel Radford Miller was born on August 14, 2024 at home, and he is a healthy 9lb 7oz boy. Angie will be recovering for a few weeks, but she is okay. Thank you for those of you who have been part of our journey in taking care of Eric's grandparents as well! On August 15, 2024, Eric's grandmother went home to be with the Lord, so now we are a family of 3. Angela's Midwife Care Team has asked her to take a full 6-8 Weeks to fully rest and recover from labor and delivery. As much help as our community can provide would be wonderful. Looking forward to visitors when we are ready!
Special Notes
Prayer Requests: - Eric only gets 10 vacation/sick days each year due to his small team that he works with. We are praying for a wonderful bonding experinece during the 7 days he is able to be at home (and praying he does not get sick the remainder of the year)! - Angela's Mom (Beth Edwards) will be staying with Angela and Baby once Eric goes back to work to help with Postpartum care for Angie and Baby. Please pray for safe travels and super health for Beth. - Angie will be taking non-paid maternity leave for 6 weeks (since she works part-time), we are praying financial provision for the family during this unique season when finances will not be abundant. - Samuel had a lip tie and a tongue tie when he was born, so he had a quick procedure done to cut the ties. Please pray for his speedy recovery, and that it will improve his ability to nurse.
