Life has been great the past two weeks. Brian graduated high school on May 29Th. There was a struggle the past two years, but I knew that he could do it and we are so proud. Then on June 2 my niece Stevie gave birth to an 8lb beautiful baby boy named Aidan. I was able to drive up to Delaware on June 3rd with my Mom, Britt, Hunter, and Trevor to visit with them. The last time that I have seen my sister and her children were 4 years ago. My niece gave birth on Tuesday and graduated on Saturday with a 3.8 gpa, great job Stevie! It was a great visit with them and I loved reminiscing about the past.
As I was driving up on Thursday around 1:45 p.m. I got the call that I had been waiting on for years now. I was accepted into the nursing program. I was not expecting to start until October because my advisor said that there "are so many students applying". I was accepted with the understanding that I had to pass the drug competency test which was today. My nerves were going 90 to nothing because I have not taken the math for meds class since summer of 2007 and was afraid that I had forgotten everything. I took the test this morning and passed! I could not get out of the classroom fast enough to call my husband to share the great news with him. Now classes start on July 12Th and that will be the beginning of my journey.
My sister in law (Stephen's baby sister) is due any day now with our new nephew Maddox Seth and I am anxiously awaiting his arrival. I can not wait to have a little one to spoil rotten. Also my neighbor Michelle (who is like my little sister) is expecting a boy any day. What blessings God has given me in just two weeks and I am forever grateful. I feel as though I need to wake up from this dream that I am living any moment now. I am one lucky woman and have the most amazing husband, family, and friends to share this with. Life is good and all I can say is Thank You Jesus!!!
