Hosanna! Palm Sunday, today. Although it doesn't feel like Spring yet, soon there will be new life bursting forth. There is new life in our family as well! This is an extremely late announcement for those who don't know--and that may be many of you.

 

 

Areli is pregnant with our second child. Baby is due on May 30 and already kicking like crazy. Thankfully, everything has been going perfectly well with the pregnancy. We are hoping for a normal birth despite a previous c-section. But this is in God's hands.

 

As many of you know, our first child is with the Lord. We recently published our story of her in Spanish as well as English at www.esthernina.com.

 

We appreciate the many of you who have been praying for us. The birth date is coming soon and I think we're ready. All you need is some diapers, right? And a car seat if you live in the U.S. And lots of love. The rest is optional. The truth is we've also been reading a lot of stuff and buy a few other things as well. And of course talking to those who have had some experience.

"Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward."
--Ps 127:3 (ESV)
