Hi Melissa, Geoff, Elijah and Ethan.
Ethan you look so happy in your daddys arms. I pray that you will grow up to be used by God. Am really looking forward to seeing all of the Gill family back here in Northern Ireland.
Ethan looks like he is winking.
What a sweetheart!
I love the two posts on the boys names.
thank you for sharing the meanings of the names. I think naming a child, through the direction of the Lord, is very important. Ethan, I can't wait to see how the Lord uses you! I'm praying for you & your future.
