Exciting News!

I was taken by surprise this morning right before leaving for the girls last summer gymnastics class. Papa Herman and Ms. Lois were going to come along so they came over to the house to give the kids some attention and drive over with us to the gym. Papa grabs my hand and says to me..."Well we wanted you to be the first to know but Lois and I are engaged". My response was, "What?.. oh, my,... you mean...I am so happy for you both...you are going to make me cry." (And then of course, filled with joy, I cried). I am so happy and excited for my father and Lois, they seem to care and love each other so much and have been good friends over the months now this is just wonderful for the both of them. The kids are also happy as they love Ms. Lois and have taken to her so quickly. What can I say but truly exciting news for our family! YAY! We will let you know when wedding things happen for them. Lois, Herman, and Merlova enjoy cake.
