Dear Louie~

I am so happy to have heard from you again; thank you so much for writing! I know you are busy, but I still worry whenever I don't hear from you!

I am still receiving disability pay every month. I am unable to work now since the accident, so this is the only thing that sustains me financially. Michael is still working long hours at the bar, and he still enjoys it. He is doing well, but he still has days where he misses his mama, and he cries sometimes whenever he thinks of her. (I do too; I love his mama very much!)

My pregnancy is progressing very well, but I am getting. so. FAT! I am eating like a HORSE, and it's like I canNOT slake my neverending hunger, no matter HOW hard I try! I hope with all my heart and soul that my baby to be is healthy; if not, I don't know what I will do or HOW I will react; but now that I have God in my life (yes, I accepted Christ as my saviour; I have been going to a Bible-believing, spirit-filled church here in Anchorage for the past several months), I at least have HOPE in the face of whatever circumstances I may face. I am trying not to worry, but sometimes I can't help myself.

Life certainly sounds like it is going very well for you and your beautiful Northern Lights Family! I am so happy I could just CRY! I am happy that Johnny has a girlfriend. Maybe that will keep his mind off his medical situations, at least for a little while. I am sorry that Ronee' fainted at her doctor's appointment. I hope it was nothing serious; I hope she is feeling better today! I am also happy about your twins Camey and Tammi getting jobs at Fire Mountain; that sounds like a wonderful place in which to eat! I am also happy about Anh's going to college to become a preacher; I bet he would make a fine one! :)

I have gotten a copy of your new book, "...And The Miracles Continue: The Sandusky Family Story, Continued", and it is just as good as your first book, if not even more so! That way, I can keep in touch with what has been happening in your lives, and it is amazing to see in the pictures just how much the children have grown! Arjun and Rani are absolutely aDORable!

I have heard from reliable sources that you have since adopted yet another child! How many does this make now, anyway? FIFTY THREE? If so, you are NUTS for taking in ao many children; I could NOT do it! I admire your fortitude and stamina! You are an amazing person; you have ALWAYS been, ever since I first met you at the hospital!

I hope Bill is feeling better too. I am sorry he fell. I hope he wasn't hurt too badly; that probably didn't help his back problems any! Poor guy!

So M'Buti is pregant. AGAIN. WOW! I am also happy to know that your eldest daughter, Lightning, is pregnant with her sixth child! WOW! That is going to be a busy woman once her new baby is born! LOL I am also happy to know that your friend Sari in Finland is pregnant. I just wonder if it is something in the water in the Lower 48! LOL If so, I must have gotten a hold of it because I am now with child as well! LOL Congratulations on the pregnancies of your daughter and also your friends Sari and M'Buti!

I am happy to know that Dwerlina is getting married this summer! I am glad she found someone she could spend her life with; I just hope he treats her well after they get married! If invited to the wedding, I will MOST certainly come! :) Maybe by then my little one will be here! :)

Congratulatons on your new book! That is great news! I would like to persue writing myself, but I am still learning, and I am afraid people wouldn't want to read my pitiful excuses for essays or stories! I am just not that good at writing! I hope it becomes a best seller!

Louie, I am so glad that you are coming to Alaska in October! I will be there to greet you when you come to Anchorage! Oh, what a joyous reunion that is going to be! I can't WAIT to see you guys again! :) When you are in Anchorage, I'll PAY for a motel for y'all! :) MY treat! :) So hush! :)

Well, Louie, I know you are probably getting ready to leave the house now to go out to breakfast and then to church, so i won't keep you. I will write again soon; take care, and God bless your fmaily mightily! Give all my love to the kiddies and to your husband! I love you and miss you so much!

(((HUGS))) As always, your friend, Jenna Aurora in Alaska. :)
