Week 10

Well, the most critical organs are developed at this point. It's now time for growth; pray for good weight gain and length (although Rachel probably asks for moderation and temperance in this prayer). The baby is about 1 1/4 inch long and weighs about 1/10 of an ounce.

Another big development this week, the irises of the eyes begin to form. Pray for blue, like daddy. Pray that God would not only give baby beautiful eyes but also that one day his/her spiritual eyes will be opened to the riches of God.

Eph 1:18-The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints...

In case you're wondering, the Rachel and I, Lucy and Linus and the house are all fine; although, we're thinking of naming the baby Ike (or not).

We like blue eyes, but good eyes are best! Each of your notes brings a special blessing to us all! We love you - all three (not too thrilled about "Ike" though).

Love you,

David & Jan
