Good news indeed, Brother Dr. Ville, Sir! I haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Ville, but hope to fellowship (or should that be fillyship? I don't know the appropriate term for ladies - my husband says it's "gossip") with her as soon as she has recovered from her lying-in.
I will pray that she is safely delivered of a son. Sister Isabella is quite correct to quote John 16:21, which tactfully does not mention the continuing anguish following the birth of a female child.
