We pray that for our little girl.Īnd now our sweet Eliza Iranzi. And she points Him out to others to follow and learns to bravely follow Him even if others don't. Lucy can see Aslan (God) in difficult/scary situations even when others cannot. Lucy Pevensie is one of the children in the Chronicles of Narnia series. We want her to be the type of person that brings general joy and light into the world, and specifically the light and hope of the gospel. She proudly tells people what her name means. Lucy means "bringer of light" and she knows it. The kind of people we hope, pray and will intentionally seek to shape them to be (though of course the Lord is the One who will give them their identity, their "name", purpose, gifts.we feel like God has also given parents a role in speaking life and vision into children, naming being one of many opportunities to do that.) Names that are prayers and hopes we have for their future. "Our way" has been to pray for vision for their lives and give them names that reflect that. I guess I do think some ways are better than others). There are lots of ways people name their kids, one of them not better than another (okay I know someone who named their kid 7. Naming each of our children has felt like a big responsibility. Spa treatment over.īut this post isn't the birth story it is the story of her name: Eliza Iranzi. on one of the next contractions my water broke and transition began. Those were my famous last words though."this is kind of embarrassing, this feels almost like I'm at the spa". Until transition it felt like a spa treatment with candles, white lights all around, soft music, people bringing me drinks and offering me anything and everything. My dear friend Tiffany caught the moment on camera: We chose not to find out gender and I was so exhausted after pushing the baby out that I just held her for about five minutes before Hunter finally convinced me to hold her up to see if she was a boy/girl. We're so thankful for her and to the Lord. We can't say enough great things about our midwife Jocelyn Jelsma, who made us feel medically and emotionally safe and secure in our home in Rwanda while we prepared for and as we birthed our fourth child into the world. Her birth, which I hope to write about at some point, was a gift and incredible experience. we welcomed Eliza Iranzi Thompson into the world. For those who have yet to hear, on Sunday, May 18th at 6:35 p.m.
