Hello, Marion. Don't ask me why I was up so early on a Saturday morning. I guess it's a sign of aging.
At any rate, once again, I enjoyed your comments as you read. I needed to interject some comic relief into the story. Kids have a way of doing that.
As for the "home pregnancy test," in the 19th century, the Kiestein test was often used to confirm a suspected pregnancy. Michaela has started the process of seeing if it is positive or negative. This will be explained a bit more later in the story.

I love Joe's pronunciation! I worry about what is happening outside and of course Michaela

Ah, Josef's "infamy" thing.
Out of the mouths of babes....

Hi Debby, I really like Joe,and the talk that Katie had with Sully, I can imagine Sullys face jaja.
I'm worry about Michaela,I hope is nothing bad what she has.
I like when you write the relationship of M&S with the kids,specialy Katie and Joe.
I wounder how Sully is going to take about having another baby,I remember how he was afreid of loosing Michaela when Hope was born.
I hope Michaela is fine, but another baby!!!!!!!!!!

Rosie,
I'm glad you are enjoying Katie and Josef in this story.
The suspense will build a bit longer as to Michaela's health.

Debby, I haven't commented on the story as of yet, but I must say, it is great -- and as always, you keep us on our toes. Thank you for keeping M&S's wonderful love alive and I do hope she is not going to have a baby. I was thinking that after Hope was born, they said she could not have any more. Oh well, as always it is worth waiting for and Joe and Katie are something to hold dear. One of my boys, I can very much associate with Joe. Thank you Debby for another great story.

Thanks for reading the story. I hope you won't be disappointed.
