Our grandson Ethan

I am going to attach a picture of our new grandson Ethan Michael Gerke. You have to admit he is much better looking than any other grandchild in the entire world. I don't think I am bragging but it must be fact. Just look at him. All others pale in comparison.

The latest news

Hello and welcome to our blog. We are kind of new at this so I hope that we do it justice. We have had many changes in the last few years. Our son Richard (Ricky) moved to Padova Italy and fell in love with Fleur Brown. They were married last summer. Richard is working for the Dept. of Defence in Vicenza Italy. He is a youth co-ordinator on the Army base there. He is also interning with Armed Forces Radio and TV. He has written some scripts for comericals and is also doing so voice and film work for them too. Please pray that he gets a full time job there. Being newlyweds they could use the income.

Our son Michael married Serena Otto 2 years ago and they just had their first child. His name is Ethan Michael Gerke. He weighed 9 lbs 11 oz and was 20 " long. Since Serena is only 4' 11" tall he was quite a big boy. He had to be taken by Ceaserian section. She was pretty sore after the surgery but things are going better now. If they could just get some sleep it would be even better.
