Posting 5: A new grandson!

1/5/15

Sorry we haven't posted in a while, but we've been with little or no internet access lately.  We were off on a Safari and up at Mt. Kenya.  We'll be posting pictures of our trip later this week.

We wanted to devote today's blog to a much more important topic: the birth of our new grandson, Tyler Jay Schreibman.  We're so excite to welcome him to the family. Mom, dad and baby are all doing well.

Before we left home, we knew the most difficult part of being away would be how much we would miss our family and friends. And that has definitely proven to be true, especially during life-events like the birth of a baby.  Thank goodness for Skype and FaceTime, which have allowed us to keep in touch on a weekly (or more often) basis.  One of our kids, Brian, says that because of FaceTime he actually "sees" more of us now that we're in Africa! Many of you have continued to communicate via email, which we very much appreciate and encourage you to continue.
