With no preconceived notions of what she would look like, my immediate thought when I saw Ivy's first picture was that she reminded me of Felicity.

She's 9 months old and we named her Ivie Jane!! I thought it was so unique so I was shocked when I heard Ben and Jessa had named their baby the same. We chose Ivie (we used a different spelling) because it means "faithful." We chose Jane because it means "Jehovah has been gracious" and he certainly has! She's a sweet blessing as is sweet Ivy Seewald!

Many people went to the mission field as a result of this. The Bible tells us that there is a special reward in heaven for martyrs. This life is such a short blip, and God used theirs in many ways for eternity.
