Anyone who has followed this blog, been a supporter or friend for a good length of time would know that April and May every year are exceptionally busy. Every year we hold the Catalyst Youth Leadership Academy, Conquest Camps and host foreign guests and students for six weeks. It is also ordinarily one of our favorite times of the year too. This year was no less busy and definitely no less our favorite but for an additional and different reason. 
April saw the arrival of our beautiful daughter, Katelyn Hope Biggs. I really wanted a home water birth and although we believed it possible there were some impressive obstacles to overcome. Not the least of which was the lack of bath tub, jacuzzi or pool. However, my amazing husband came to my rescue and turned our shower into a bath tub. This proved absolutely amazing in the last few weeks and was perfect for Katelyn's birth.
Katelyn arrived safe and sound 30 minutes after our incredible midwife arrived at our house, she has been such a blessing to our family and has gone above and beyond what I expected from a midwife. We will always be grateful for Heather Boswell, her gentle touch, knowledge, patience and wisdom.
Ethan and Jasmine love having a baby sister and as part of his home schooling I asked Ethan to write some thoughts for this blog.
From Ethan
I love my baby sister. She is so cute and cuddly. God has blessed us with our new baby sister. She understands more then I thought she would. She smiles lots but also has a loud cry. Her neck is not strong yet.
For those of you who don't know, our Katelyn is a miracle and we have been on a journey of hope being restored through the process of her coming into our family. Below is a video sharing about that journey from a sermon I preached at Impact Life Church in Kentucky.
Thought for the month: Spend time with people who make you laugh. Pastor Kelly Floyd we miss you and your ability to make us cry we are laughing so hard.
