We are adding one more
Ostrand to the crew. Upon returning home
to the USA, we found out that Julie is pregnant!
We
have South African health insurance and need to have
the baby in Africa (for expenses to be covered). The
baby is due in early March, and right now it looks
like we may head back to Cape Town a bit sooner...perhaps
in December.
|
We are thrilled
and excited...
appreciate all your prayers for the preganancy and
baby!
