We are pleased to introduce our son Pilgrim Richard Gardner Sumpter. God is good. Pilgrim was born January 19 at 8:33pm. He was born at 27 weeks. He was 2lbs 4oz and 14inches. He is now at 30 weeks or 3 weeks from birth. He is doing very well for being a premie. He has regained his birth weight and is going strong.
We have been working with our adoption agency for a little over three years. We met our son on Feb 4. Our caseworker told us that we had submitted our profile books to the agency on that very same day three years ago. It has been a long journey.
We decided on the name Pilgrim because our son has a journey in front of him still. We have all been on a journey and we now get to share our journey together.
Our son's full name means a wandering noble gardener. To wander as a pilgrim around in God's world is a blessing. We don't always know where God is leading us but He is a good father and He has prepared the journey and the destination for us. Bunyan's great Christian work reveals that truth in a profound way.
We pray that our son is a strong noble man who loves to tend and guard God's world. Even now at 2lbs Pilgrim is busy tending the small plot in front of him that God has assigned him: sleeping and eating. Keep at it, little man.
We are very thankful for all the support and prayers we have received over the last three years: from the pig raffle to toy story 2 movie night to the gofundme page raising money for our adoption. Pilgrims never walk alone in God's kingdom.
