Tovia Ann: Easter Babe | Having Two Legs

We are so thankful to report that Tovia Ann was born yesterday evening, on Resurrection Sunday, just after 7pm. She weighed in at 2lbs 2oz, but she was breathing on her own and all of her vitals were good. She’s got a long road ahead of her, and she still needs much prayer. But we are so thankful for her and that she looks so healthy thus far. Please also keep mom in your prayers as she has a good deal of recovery ahead of her.

‘Tovia’ means God is good, and ‘Ann’ is after a couple of great-grandmothers, an aunt, and a great-aunt. ‘Ann’ also means grace, and she is.

Christ is Risen! Alleluia!
