Fabulous! He's so beautiful! Good work Mama Jessa. And what a perfect name -- a prophet seems perfect for the first of the 2nd generation diaspora. Much love to all all three of you!

He has red hair, just like his auntie Selena...oh, wait...that's the nurses' hair. But he's beautiful all the same.
