READ THIS READ THIS NOW! – UPDATE!

From the “Your good news” thread just a few minutes ago:

Singing Mum says:

In hosp about to deliver my fourth boy, Dominc Miguel.
He is Dominic for the holy founder and Miguel for St Michael and Bl. Miguel Pro.

I love my men!! God willing, He may have one or all as priests.

FanTAStic!

Everyone!  Please stop NOW and say a pray for a good and safe delivery!

UPDATE 2 March 2020 GMT:

Singing Mum writes in a comment, below:

For all your prayers and kind words- a thousand thank yous!
Little Dom was born in a monastic hour, 4:53am, weighing 7lbs, 4oz, and measuring 20&1/2″.  He has exhibited a gentle spirit thus far, which is quite welcome in a family with four boys.
His baptismal date, and subsequent birth into Christ, will be March 19, [OOH-RAH!] because it’s easy to remember as St. Joseph’s day. And why not add on another mighty patron?
I’m doing just fine after a long labor, and my husband Bill is a great help. Dom’s older brothers will storm the hospital to greet their brother this evening.
Thanks again, Fr. Z and all for prayers!

You are welcome.  And now we can also add a prayer of thanks.

    Singing Mum is a bright light in the musical world – and a fantastic soprano. With her own male quartet, there will be no stopping her! (And her husband’s a dynamite classical guitarist as well.)
    God grant my good friend a safe delivery and many years!

    Mjballou, onward and upward with your Irish songs with harp idea! If you are still interested, we can start conspiring soon! CMAA Colloquium?

  23. Flambeaux says:

    Deo gratias! Let Te Deum be sung!

  24. marthawrites says:

    May your new son stay close to his powerful patrons. In selecting them for this little one, you have given him a great and prophetic gift. One of the marvelous joys of being a Catholic is becoming familiar with the rich array of saintly lives which have gone before us and attaching ourselves to some with whom we relate in a deeply personal way. I consider St. Martha a match made in heaven for me. Congratulations, Singing Mum!

  25. Dr. Eric says:

    Congratulations, Singing Mum! I pray that little Dominic Miguel grows up healthy, happy, and strong. And, God willing, that he becomes a priest.

    (My oldest son’s name is Dominic, good choice!)

  26. bernadette says:

    Congratulations on the birth of your fourth boy! I never experienced the joy of having a son, only three girls. Not that there is anything wrong with that!

  27. Mitchell NY says:

    God Bless your new baby, family and home…I am a March 18th baby, day before St. Joseph’s and a day after St. Patricks….Puts alot of pressure on me to fill in that Saintly space. Well I try..I suspect this year will have many joys for you and your entire family.

  28. Prof. Basto says:

    Congratulations, Singing Mum.

    May God richly bless your child.

    LAUDETUR IESUS CHRISTUS IN AETERNUM!

    Benedicite, omnia opera Domini, Domino; laudate et superexaltate eum in saecula; Benedicite, caeli…

  29. Joan M says:

    Thanks be to God for a safe delivery.

    Congratulations on the new baby.

  30. Random Friar says:

    Blessings be upon mother and child!

  31. irishgirl says:

    Congratulations on your new son, Singing Mum!
    And what a great day for him to be baptized-St. Joseph’s Day!

  32. Kinda overachieving on the Holy Father’s spiritual bouquet, eh? :)

    God is very good.

    Wonderful news. God bless you all.
