And then somehow in His own special way, He works everything out perfectly. &nbsp;When we came home for \u2018Medical Leave\u2019 last October we didn\u2019t expect to be staying for almost a year. . . but God orchestrated the details to allow for more time for healing for Tyler and to grow our little family. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Haven Amber<\/strong> was born on July 4th at 2:07 a.m. after four days of contractions for Allegra. &nbsp;The doctors had intended to perform a repeat cesarean delivery (since our first two were emergencyc-sections) but God\u2014and Haven\u2014had other ideas. &nbsp;She was born naturally as Allegra\u2019s labor intensified very quickly at home and by the time we got to the hospital Haven was ready to \u2018let freedom ring\u2019! &nbsp;It was a wild experience and we are very thankful the Lord brought us through it! &nbsp;We praise God for His grace in it and for our healthy baby and Momma. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haven was 5lbs. 11oz. and 19 inches long. Her name reminds us that our place of refuge and safety is only found in the Lord\u2014<strong>He is our Safe Haven<\/strong> and we pray that our daughter will understand that as she grows older.
