We were able to be with Jeremey and Alison for Haven’s birth. What a day of excitement and wonder! Alison did such an awesome job, docs and nurses were amazed (no epidural!). Of course, she had Jeremey right there every second to hang on to. They were the same sweet loving couple as they always are, working together to bring Haven into the world. Grandma Joy was at the delivery and Grandpa Kevin, Grandpa Johnson, and Aunt Jenny supported from outside the door. They really surprised the whole staff by insisting on doing this on Monday (well, really Tues. 12:12am). We are so happy that Haven is so strong and healthy, and that she is in such great care. Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts, support, and encouraging words. We’re excited about this website that will keep us all connected to what is going on in our granddaughter’s life.

Love,
Kevin and Joy
