A New Dingle has Arrived!

We wanted to let everyone know that the latest Dingle has arrived.

Praise God with us as we welcome Alee Moriah Dingle and thank Him that the horrible sickness of pregnancy is over.

Alee is made from Rebecca's father's first initial and middle name (pronounced Ali- like short for Alison)
She will be called Alee in honor of Rebecca's father, whom we love and miss Very much, praying that as she grows she will one day leave as rich a heritage as he has and serving Her Heavenly Father as faithfully as he did while on this earth.

Moriah means God is my teacher or chosen by God and was the Mt where Abraham went to offer Issac to God. We chose this name because while God asked Abraham to trust Him and be obedient in offering his son, even though Abraham did not understand- God provided a way and blessed him. During this past year, particularly this pregnancy, we have felt like Abraham- not understanding, yet knowing we still must trust our God. Even though we do not understand everything- we can see how He has provided and blessed us even in the midst of trial and difficulty.

Weighing 8 lbs 10 ounches

Rebecca is doing very well and will be at St. Agnes Hospital through Sunday. Thank you all for your many prayers over these 9 months- you can see how God has answered by blessing us with this precious little girl!!
