Michael and Ashley Price of Baltimore, Ohio, wish to announce the birth of their first child, a son, Lowell Robert Price. Lowell was expected March 18, 2021, but surprised everyone with an early arrival on Dec. 31, 2020. The little guy only weighed 3 pounds, 7 ounces and measured 16 inches long at birth. After many prayers, weight gain, and daily improvements, Lowell was released and able to come home from Mount Carmel Hospital on March 10, 2021. He then weighed 7 pounds and 6 ounces.

He was welcomed home by his grandparents JoSue and Chuck Miller of Reynoldburg, Ohio, Robert and Christine Frantz, and Steven Lowell (Steve) and Linda Price, Greenville, Ohio. His great-grandparents are Roberta and Robert Franz, Helen North of Arcanum, and Robert North, Georgeanna and Lowell Price, deceased. To quote Winnie the Pooh, “Sometimes the smallest things take up the biggest part of your heart.” May your home be filled with many years of laughter and love in the Price Family!
