Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Pardon me if I missed the grand announcement. I've been bubbling with this one for sometime and waiting until she told, so I don't think I missed the thread. But I know it's not a secret because I just received an absolutely beautiful Christmas card with a picture of six gorgeous Gunthers which clearly announced a seventh due in June .

So, let's claim this parcel of cyberspace for praising God's goodness and around the world!

Congratulations, Alice and blessings to you all!

I have been waiting too to give out public congrats! I may also add that Alice looks beautiful and in no way has that exhausted, queasy look that I seem to be plagued with when I am newly pregnant. She's glowing!

Congratulatons to the Gunther family!!
