Hurray!

My brother called last night to say that he and his wife are 12 weeks pregnant with their first baby! We are so happy and excited! They've been trying for about 2 years and were starting early fertility treatments and other medical options to assist and have been successful. Ruth 4.10 predicts a girl. May 7.7 predicts a boy. (Actually, just before bed time last night she revised her prediction to a cross between a boy and a girl. *cringe* Not a sensitive thing to say to someone who had trouble getting pregnant and has some endocrine issues that were causing problems with pregnancy.) Overall, the girls are just overjoyed. They are saying, "We are going to have a cousin!" as if they don't already have any. They actually have 5, but they are so much older that my girls don't really realize they are cousins!

I'm on pins and needles today as the potential lease for the new site for Ruth's preschool goes through the final approval stages (zoning and otherwise). Cin said that the school is already receiving calls from people who've heard of our proposed location and are interested in enrolling. Yay! Praying it all goes well.
