Announcing Joshua Rebira Labonar!!!

Good Morning Labonar family blog followers!!!!



We are pleased to introduce our son…Joshua Rebira Labonar.  He was born on April 19, 2010 forever in our hearts and home by the grace of our Father on May 2, 2011.  He has two proud sisters…Hannah  Marie and Sarah Michelle back home in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois.

His American name, given by us, means "Jehovah is salvation".   His Ethiopian name is Rebira meaning “from God”.   Names are VERY important in the Ethiopian culture.   We are proud to carry on this tradition.

Welcome to the Labonar Looney Bin Joshua!  We have waited, anticipate and prayed for your arrival!






 Psalm 146:5
 3-9 Don't put your life in the hands of experts
      who know nothing of life, of salvation life.
   Mere humans don't have what it takes;
      when they die, their projects die with them.
   Instead, get help from the God of Jacob,
      put your hope in God and know real blessing!
   God made sky and soil,
      sea and all the fish in it.
   He always does what he says—
      he defends the wronged,
      he feeds the hungry.
   God frees prisoners—
      he gives sight to the blind,
      he lifts up the fallen.
   God loves good people, protects strangers,
      takes the side of orphans and widows,
      but makes short work of the wicked.
