Everett Charles 🩵.

My son.

My all-star 🏆.

My MVP.

Everett Charles, this is your story.

This is how you entered the world.

This is how God brought you here.

This is…another example of how GOOD our GOD IS 🙏🏽!

Born 6+ weeks early, you were just ready to be here.

Strong and brave.

Bright and brilliant.

Athletic with chill moments.

Content in Christ in all circumstances.

Giggly with a sweet smile.

Meticulous and observant.

Wise beyond your years.

Funny, fun, and filled with the joy of the Lord.

Handsome and confident.

Know what you want and strong like your momma.

We had a whole other plan utilizing prenatal care with the wonderful midwives at Luminary Birth and Wellness Center. But when Amber’s water broke early, all those plans immediately shifted when the midwife transferred your care to the hospital for what was now a high-risk pregnancy.

God came through because He knew this is exactly how He wanted you to enter the world, son.

As we know, God’s ways are better than ours, His plans are supreme and as for me and my house, we serve Him, King Jesus! His love has already been fashioning you and shaping you, even before you were in your mother’s womb, He has been handcrafting you since the beginning of time and it’s an absolute HONOR to be your father, precious, sweet, strong & brave Everett.

We thought we had more time to name you lol so after a few days of prayer, we encountered this Bible verse etched in stone at the hospital chapel:

“God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.” - Psalm 46:1

It was confirmation to name you Everett, for we know that GOD IS EVER-PRESENT IN YOUR LIFE, EVERETT.

Everett means strong and brave, professional yet also rockstar.

It is fitting because you are truly all of that AND MORE.

IT IS AN HONOR TO BE YOUR DADDY, DEAR SON.

I LOVE YOU!

All my love, son,

Daddy 💙
