Abel Titus Plair was born Sunday, May 15, at 2:17am, welcomed by four doting brothers! He weighed in at 8 lbs, 2 oz, measuring 21 inches long. Abel means “breath, son, or breathing spirit” and we praise our merciful God for his safe delivery into our arms and for giving another son the breath of life.
Titus is in memory and honor of our dear nephew who died during childbirth five years ago on Tuesday, May 17th. My brother, Tanner Snow, and his sweet wife, Megan Snow, suffered the grief and loss of their firstborn son, but have honored Christ by the strength only He can provide in such pain. 

We are honored to give his name to our 5th son to carry on his memory in our hearts and lives. For what would have been his 5th birthday, Megan Snow is posting tributes written by family members and friends, and a beautiful poem she wrote here: https://snowinlove.wordpress.com/2016/05/17/delivered/

Our hearts are full of the joy God gives so uniquely in the blessing of children, and the future hope Tanner and Megan have in that blessing.





Shepherd approves!
