Stephen is the eldest of 7 children. Every night at the dinner table a different child takes their turn at praying for the meal. Because of our history of having issues with pregnancy, the family was very committed to praying daily for my health and safety and the health and safety of our unborn child.
One night it was Luke's, the youngest sibling, who is 8, turn to pray for supper. In the middle of his prayer he simply said “Jesus please keep Cher and Peanut safe. Amen” Everyone, of course, was a little confused at to who or what “peanut” was, so he explained that was the name of my baby.
Ever since then we all refer to our little baby as “Peanut”. I wouldn't be surprised if the nickname stuck for the rest of Peanut's life! Thanks Lukey!
