Perpetue, a tied but proud mother ... that's young David snoozing like a lamb.
Our Probationer Solomon Surwumwe and his lovely wife Perpetue have a son and his name is DAVID. It's a strong biblical name and Roger Tem has given your scribe some background into how this name was chosen by the couple, who have become so influential in our lives.
Solomon and Roger were chatting at Roger's Bible study last Friday and Roger "out of the blue" said the name of the new baby would be David, who by the way was only supposed to arrived on the 20th March.
Solomon and Perpetue made of point of not checking the sex of their child and Solomon therefore asked the obvious question. "What if it's a girl?" But all four of those present at the Bible Study said there was no doubt whatsoever that the new baby would be a boy and that his name would be David..
Young David, Surwumwe, blue pillow and all, at rest on Saturday afternoon. Scroll down to see a picture of the family together.
Perpetue had a bad night last Monday and Solomon was on his way to the Johannesburg General on Tuesday morning. At 14h00 a son was born and DAVID was his name. So all of us at St Mark's now welcome David Surwumwe into our community.
The parents are overjoyed and all three are well. Solomon kindly gave the Marksman Online access to his home to take these pictures to share with all of you out there.
The Baby Shower was only due to be held this Saturday and the WA were taken a little off guard by the sudden turn of events earlier last week. May young David be showered with blessings as we welcome a future member of Men for the Master. Now we know the colour of choice will be blue.for a boy.
Just click on the thumbnail picture of Elvis lower down the right hand column and up will come more than 40 pictures of the clean up, the braai and of course Solomon, Perpetue and young David.
