THOMAS INFORM CHRISTA OF HIS PLAN

Entering the room thinking Christa and the baby might be asleep, but Christa had him on the bed with her. "Now this is a beautiful sight."

"Isn't he the cutest baby?" Christa whispers.

"That he is my love, now we have never discussed what his name should be, and we cannot keep calling him baby Thomas."

Hearing her laugh, "That's for sure, next thing that name stick on him when he became a big man, but for now that suits him perfectly."

"Do you know you are the second person who said that to me for the evening?"

"Then that is confirmation, but that will be so until we decide what his name should be?"

Thomas look how firm he's holding her finger, when she said, "Your son will be strong and courageous, you just wait and see."

Holding her hand as he sits on the bed, recalling her father's words how her mother used to pray. Asking her quietly, "Did you pray for him after you learned of your pregnancy?"

Hearing her whisper, "I prayed for him every day that the Lord will keep him strong. I was so afraid I will lose him when I used to feel that chilliness.

All I used to think was if I lose him, you will be so disappointed and unhappy. I didn't want you to be hurt or unhappy in any way.

Do you know that day you heard when dad told you of my pregnancy? Hearing how angry you were with them when you thought they knew and was stressing me out.

You should know, I didn't know either until the doctors did the ultrasound. From then on, I never stop praying and blessing him."

Feeling such relief thinking back about the report Christa's dad said when they brought her home and she got the cow as a gift.

'It the same with my son, Pretty Lady made her first latter and they were twins. It should be my first gift to him.'

"Honey, I was thinking this coming weekend we could dedicate him, but your dad said you wanted Errol to be his Godfather."

"That is true, but Errol cannot be here because he needs to be home with those two. Papa and I were speaking earlier, and he suggested Laura from my family.

I hope you won't be too offended, but Errol ask if we could name the baby, David or Daniel in his letter."

"Okay, we will tell the others and hear what they think, but know this, we will have the final say."

"Thank you so much, I am praying and asking God to give me a name."

"Then I am not worried, but we will have some fun Saturday. I will invite everyone so we could have a naming game for him, and they will get to see him."

"That sounds wonderful, and please speak to Pastor about dedicating him. Thomas, whatever name we choose his middle name will either be Daniel or David."

"Okay, and honey Pretty lady give birth to twins at about eight this evening. I help with her delivery so my gift to my son is those beauties, so we will have to name them as well?"

"Thank you, that is the first gift my son gets." Seeing her smiling thinking, 'She must be thinking about her first gift.'

Seeing him turn, and was about to cry, Christa pick him up, "Are you hungry, mummy will get you a tea."

"You hold him, I will fix it."

"Thank you, but his milk is in the thermos."

"Did Mrs. Marva mix his tea earlier?"

"Tom, I am feeding him my milk."

Looking at her, thinking, 'This is wonderful, my son will be strong drinking his mother milk.'

Pouring the milk in his bottle, hearing her saying, "To bring that cup with a half cup of hot water."

Wanted to know what she was going to do, but did as she asks. Watching her test, the milk, then rest the bottle in the cup just for a five-second.

When she tests the milk temperature again. seeing the smile before she feeds him.

Thomas enjoys looking at them as his eyes close, hearing her praying with him as he drinks slowly.

Friday was a long and very trying day, making arrangements to get help for Saturday and the many pre-preparation for Saturday and Sunday.

Thomas calls Pastor letting him know that he will like him to do the baby dedication in Church Sunday morning.

He also asked Aliza to get Christa a dress and a baby suit and a beautiful dress for Laura and herself.

Placing his orders at the bakery for cake and pastries for Saturday afternoon, also for the evening for Sunday morning.

Entering his room for half five thinking, Christa will be joining his family for dinner. Noticing the small table in the room with all the baby things for his tea and a new kettle.

Also, a small fridge was on top of the table at one end. The crib was empty and so was the room. Checking the fridge only to see it have milk in bottles for the baby and a few baby bottles.

Thomas wondered whose idea was it? He knows Christa is still very skeptical, could it be that she doesn't want to leave his milk so anyone can tamper with it?'

Tired and hungry Thomas showers and puts on a, black short pants, and a red open front jersey. Slipping his feet into his slippers, then head downstairs.

Hearing the talking, Thomas went towards that direction, seeing Mom, dad, and Christa's dad with the baby in a room.

They seems to convert the room into a baby room, it had a crib and new sofas and chairs. Her dad was holding him as they relaxed.

Hearing Christa's dad saying to the baby, "Look, who reach home to see his baby? That is your daddy."

Bending to look at him, Thomas hears his father-in-law saying, "Here you go, let him know you reach home from work."
