The newest joy in our clan arrived on Saturday morning. Weighing in at six pounds eleven ounces and twenty inches long, Nova Joy Melchor Brewer made her appearance September 7 just before four a.m. She is a blessing, and Mommy, Daddy, and big brother (that’s Suzanne, Andrés, and Mateo) are doing just fine. (So, by the way, is grandpa.)
In one way or another, I can bear witness to the miracle of birth from the perspective of three generations. I have been (and am) a grandpa, a dad, and a brother. And I think I can say with some authority that birth is easiest on us grandparents.
The roots of the word Nova are Latin; it means new. Nova Joy - New Joy. Little Nova Joy, may the good Lord enable you to live up to your name as you bring new fresh joy to all who know you.
