Introducing our second son: Morrow John Piper
Morrow is perfect.
Mama’s doing well.
I feel high.
Days like this are about half the reason I’m glad to be human.
Update: Molly tells the story.

thank you and Molly both for continually choosing to share your lives.
Beautiful child! However, as to that “perfect” thing, maybe you need to have a little talk with grandpa concerning that old “telling lies from the womb” matter.
;>)

A sweet name.
How wonderful! I was so excited to read Molly’s blog yesterday! Then I thought, “No wonder we never see pictures of her!”
Good suprise! I’ve prayed that God would bless you both with another baby and now look you’re a dad of two boys! I have two boys, so I have a soft spot for boys.
Morrow is too cute and I love those red lips!

Auntie Liz sends lots of love and will patiently wait my turn to cuddle and hold him. Love to all of you!!

Baruch haShem! Morrow looks a lot like Orison. What a blessing!
YAY!!! Congratulations! The Lord is AWESOME!
Fantastic news — and glad you made the delivery! (been there myself: I once was paged from the lunchroom and made it back just in time!). Enjoy your family. We’re so happy, and praise the Lord with you.
He’s beautiful. We’ve been praying for you guys and will continue to do so. There isn’t anything quite so spectacular ~ Praise the Lord for His blessings.
Oh, what a gift. He is truly beautiful – a gift from the Lord. May God bless him and your family.
A beautiful boy! Rejoicing with you!

Congratulations!
Congratulations on the birth of Morrow. The 22nd is a good day. That’s my oldest daughter’s birthday!!
May the Lord continue to bless you and your family!
I don’t know you guys except for your blog and Bethlehem’s ministry, so I had no idea your family was expecting. Congratulations on your wonderful baby boy! That’s extraordinary news.
As a personal note, my wife and I received our second blessing (both boys) just this past March. I wouldn’t trade it for the world…
congratulations on the arrival of morrow. my younger brother had a son this week too.
may God bless you, your family, and ministries you are part of.
he is precious and too cute. praise Jesus for His faithfulness.
i am excited to meet him.
so happy for you four!
Wow — that’s what I get for going on a job interview.
Congrats, dude! that second picture makes it clear who’s son he is.
My opinion is that you should have named him Peter John Piper to honor your Grand-dad’s love of the apostle. You could have called him “PJ” to avoid any real trauma. :-)
a couple of days on the road and this is what happens on my blog circuit!
so, so many congratulations to your family!
Wow – major congratulations!
Your joy is contagious! Thank you for sharing. Morrow IS perfect.
This is a case where the “a” word fits. Awesome!
