Update for January, 2010

Once again, I'm back on Blogger... I'm really not sure how many people read this. So I usually just post on Facebook.
The 23rd of this month marked a Year since the accident lauren and I were in... What a Great God we serve! And how happy I am to serve Him! Without His protection both lauren and I wouldn't be here. I would be dead with a tube from the car through my chest, and lauren would've been thrown through the windshield. Few people know just how close it was... Praise the Lord!
Currently I'm waiting on a momma who's 9 days overdue with her 2nd baby. She'll be delivering at St. Francis. I also have another momma due on the 7th, she's going to have a homebirth with one of the Midwives in the Richmond area! I'm so excited to finally attend a real homebirth! (all I've been doing so far is hospital births, and one unassisted.)
In December 2009 I began part 2 of the Midwifery Academics with Charis Childbirth after a 2 month break. My projected plan is to be finished with that within 8 months to a year. I've also started "Postpartum doula-ing". It's so much fun and I just love caring for sweet young babies while giving their mothers a chance to take a shower, eat, or even go out for awhile.
I'm still working with the 3 year old boy with Downs Syndrome. He is so sweet. I'm learning so much fron working with him. Going to speech and OT every friday, and organizing his learning activities. I also just recently took up massage, mostly prenatal, but some plain massage. I really enjoy it, and it'll help me with school. The Lord always provides, does He not?
I'm also teaching piano 2 days a week still. Currently I have 18 students that come here, and 2 I teach in Richmond. (20 total.)
That is my life in a nutshell. Of course there is the occasional social engagments that come my way. Or Doula/Midwifery workshops.

The Lord is still leading, "Day by day". It's a continual journey of faith and trust in the Almighty. But the Lord is showing Himself powerful, resourceful, and loving.
I owe all to Him!
God Bless!
