In my last quick update, I'm afraid I wasn't completely truthful as to why I haven't been on the computer lately. Not because I didn't want to be, but because I didn't quite have permission to...yet. :) But yesterday I got the permission I needed to announce to the world (yes, I consider Blogger a big part of the world! :) that:My dear Mother is pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She found out just a few days after they got back from Hawaii. :) She is due mid-July of next year. So, one of the other reasons (besides being on a "blogger-break") that I haven't been on my computer - updating ya'll :) - is because I have resumed my position as mother-of-the-house-for-awhile. :) Mother has been in bed for most of the past couple of weeks. That morning sickness is just awful! :( But she hopes that it'll pass within the next two or three weeks. Please keep her in your prayers! And also, pray that I keep a cheerful countenance as housekeeping can get a little overwhelming with the little ones. :)
We're all very excited for Mother and the baby! This will be #7...or #8!! We're actually praying for twins...twin boys, since there is only one boy in our family so far. :) But whatever God sends to us, we will receive with open arms! ♥
Blessings,

Oh Raquel, that is wonderful! I am so ecastic and happy for your family! I know exactly how you all feel. Last time mom and dad said that we were going to have another sibling, I just sat on the couch and cried I was so happy =) Isn't that funny! We all want mom to have another baby. (I just love them)
Anyway, I'll be praying for your mom and the baby's health.
