And I haven't told you the name of him yet! Matthew has always been a special name for me. I lost my firstborn child, my son, at birth and always made a vow before God that I would name my next son Matthew - which means 'Gift of God'. Well, due to health complications that resulted in a hysterectomy, I will never have a biological human son. But now I have a furry son coming home. And I was going to name him Matthew. Well my husband is German so we are going to use the German version of the name. When my baby arrives tonight, I will say a prayer over him, thanking God for this gift, asking for blessings from his former mommy, and we will christen him ....
Matthias Chandler ______ (my last name inserted on the line). I'll likely just call him Matt or Mattie for short.

My sister is coming home tonight and is stopping by to pick him up so that I don't have to travel. He won't get here until about 10pm-ish. So tomorrow, I will take pictures and post them.

God bless all!

I know how excited you must be. Talk about a long day. Just think it won't be that long until you will be giving him hugs & kisses.
