Halle (pronounced "Halley") Ruth Jacobs



Due Date: January 12th
Born: January 15th, 2008 @ 4:37 am (She took her time, I guess.)
Place: Parkview Medical Hospital in Pueblo, Colorado
Weight: 7 lbs - Height: 19 1/2 inches (Pretty tall!)

She has been such a blessing to my wife Eileen and I. We love her sooo much. I wanted to share this poem that I wrote to my wife about our Little One after her birth:

Praise the Lord for Halle!

Praise God! Praise Him!

Praise the Lord for Halle!

For He alone planned her life, all for His glory


Praise God! Praise Him!

Praise the Lord for Halle!

For He alone made her, the beauty that you see


Praise God! Praise Him!

Praise the Lord for Halle!

For He alone gave her her unique personality


Praise God! Praise Him!

Praise the Lord for Halle!

For He alone entrusted her to you and to me


Praise God! Praise Him!

Praise the Lord for Halle!

For He alone is worthy of all her life ...
Let us point her toward eternity


Praise the Lord for Halle!
