"In a season when the story is so often division and death, evidence of man’s destructive tendencies has never been more apparent," Battistelli shared after his birth. "While the world is at its darkest, our ever present God shines a light—life in the midst of death and chaos. He has not abandoned us. He is not finished! We are so, so happy to announce the birth of our fourth child, Wyatt Samuel Goodwin! He was born at home, Sunday, October 1 at 7:56pm. 10 lbs. 8 oz. 23 in. of pure perfection!"
