About Me
- Jay
- My name is Jay. I am a 37 year old guy, elated to be married to my beautiful bride of 15 years, Laura. We have two sons, Evan and Colin, who are just about the most amazing two boys that anyone, anywhere, has ever known. We have a beautiful daughter named Raina, whom we have recently adopted from China - and quite simply, she has completely lit up our world. I am a bass-playing worship leader at Parkview Christian Church who happens to earn a living as a communications technician in the mighty city of Chicago. I make a very human attempt at following my savior Jesus Christ as closely as I can, so I am therefore very thankful for His grace. He laid down His life in order to purchase mine, and gave me eternal life in exchange for my trust in Him. He has proven Himself faithful to me throughout my life, which is why I hold fast to Him.

What's in a name? There used to be a LOT in a name! People used to be named for what their parents hoped and prayed their destiny would be. People often live out the character that their name means. If that's the case, Raina has a bright future! And as her parents, you can help her develop a peaceful spirit in the atmosphere of your home,(a gentle and quiet spirit which is precious in God's sight) and a 'queenly' acceptance of the person she can be in Christ. So what's in a name? Alot I'd say! Love you... Mom
Saw your post on RQ, saw the name on your blog and went "oooh I LIKE that name!" We've been trying to name our 2nd daughter (we're paperchasing) for over 2 months and I can say that is the FIRST name I've read/seen/heard that I thought "OOOH I LIKE that name" and I like what it means too!
and CONGRATULATIONS on your daughter, she's just beautiful!
