I said, Let's leave for Austria." "Oh no, you can't," Karen said. "Your parents are left in Germany and my parents as well." "They will understand," I replied. "We've already started to build a house," Karen told me. "Let's finish that." "No, let's start again," I said, "somewhere else, in western Germany." Again I tried to tell her we should leave.

We were blessed for staying. This was Heavenly Father's way for us."
