Hi Family,

How exciting Dwayne and Shannon! Looks like a beautiful place! All the best as you transition. Sounds like a nice church out there too. That's great. We'll pray for new friends for Jado.

Patsy and Scott, I'm sure you are detaching and getting ready to move, at least in your minds. What a big change again. Al is looking forward to golfing with Scott. We are excited to have you around this summer!

Markus and Teresa, Haven't heard from you for awhile. How's the school year winding down? Or is it winding UP, like mine!!! Such a busy time for staff. Hope you are all well. It was sure nice having you all here last month! Any special plans for summer?

We have been on a rollercoaster this last week. We confirmed we were pregnant last weekend. Then we had to start processing mentally what that would mean for us. We were just getting used to the idea as it seemed surreal, and then I started bleeding. I spent 4 hours at St. Boniface Emergency Wed. night. Al came with me. I went through my severe cramps, which I had not had in almost three years. They called me back for more blood work Thursday (yesterday). They are trying to determine if I am still pregnant or had a miscarriage, for as my doctor put it, "your pregnancy may be in jeopardy." My gut tells me I miscarried. We are waiting for a call from St. Boniface for the results of my blood test. This is something you could pray about for us. It's a tender time.

Last night we went to Oakridge greenhouse and picked up a few more perennials this time for our front yard, in front of the house. We are excited to plant these this week. Marianne helped us out. Then we went for coffee with her, Jamie, and his girldfriend Bethany. Nice evening! Al is going fishing this weekend with the guys from church - 16 of them! Starting at Caddy Lake and then going on to Sailing Lake.

Love you all!
