Happy Spring from Chicago! We are really enjoying the warmer weather. It's so nice to see the buds opening on the trees, the daffodils and other flowers.

We continue on our family leave time until June. It will be so nice to be here in the US for Ben's graduation from Taylor University and Dick's cousin Emily's wedding in May. We're enjoying living in the same apartment building with our niece Sara, her husband David and their two little girls Miriam and Sofia. It is great to be an aunt and uncle and take part in their lives. Andrea really enjoys her time with Sara and the girls.

We've had many visitors in the past few months since Luca was born. It's been very special to see family and friends.

We live in a section of Chicago where there are many hispanic people from Central and South America. We hear Spanish and also many other languages when we go to the store or for an outing downtown.

We are praying about the future and know as of now that we will be continuing with WorldVenture and are looking at different options as to where we will minister. One idea is to go back to Argentina after working in another latin ministry until Andrea finishes highschool. We appreciate your prayers for us as we seek the Lord's will and leading.

We'll keep you posted as to our plans and activities!

More pictures coming in future posts. :-)
