Thank you so much for your sweet mail - we are doing fine - it is a little difficult without as much help - lucky my mum is helping - so the whole family are happy.
I am so sorry - we are of course still hoping, that the your visa will go through - but as you write yourself - maybe it will fail. We have tried to contact them without luck - but we haven't looked for a new au-pair so if the miracle should happened - I'll contact you right away.
Do not give up hope - sometime unexpected good things happens :0))
Lots of wishes from us
