Big News for the Streets

Here's what's been going on around here, for those who haven't already heard:

1. First off, I think most everyone (if not everyone) has heard that we are expecting another little bundle of joy this year! It's kinda reworked our plans, but the Lord seems to have a special way of doing that. November 20th is the due date, so the baby will be born in India as long as all goes well (which is expected).  I have yet to research exactly how that's all going to work out, but my midwife assured us that she thinks we would do fine as an unattended home birth if it comes to that, although we are hoping to find a midwife to assist if possible. Grandma Schultze is always welcome to come over and help if she wants to stay for a couple weeks and pay for the flight over...:)

2. As Mom may have already mentioned, the visas did come in on May 6th, I think it was. We are very excited about the Lord paving that way for us! They are one year student visas, so we will need to renew them in India next spring. We have heard that it is really easy to renew them - hopefully that will prove true.

3. After we found out the above news, Andrew got right onto purchasing tickets. It has worked out that, en route to India, we will be able to stay a week at Jordan and Naomi's in Ireland, and the following week in Corsica, France, with Andrew's sister, Anna, and her family!!! I'm thrilled!!! Our departure date is Wednesday, August 7, and we are due to arrive in Allahabad, India, on the 22nd of August I think it is.

Monday, May 6th

Today Andrew and Morgan should find out if their visa was accepted for India.

Grandma Schultze is at Cleveland Clinic being checked for an irregular heartbeat.

Charles has prolonged his stay in Taiwan.  His knee joints are getting much more help than his elbow.  They are looking into the cause of his pain as well.
