Happy Birthday Mom

I just want to take a minute or two and just say how incredibly thankful I am for the mother the Lord has allowed me to have! I have been so blessed to be raised in the family the Lord has so graciously given to me.  Mom you have been an amazing inspiration to me! All those times I felt like giving up and that there was no strength to go on, you always encouraged me to look to the Lord for strength for just one more day, strength for just one more step. You've always encouraged me to never give up and to hold on to that which the Lord has promised - for in due season we shall reap if we faint not. You have an amazing listening ear and are always ready to drop whatever you're doing just to listen and hear "what's going on". I'm so thankful for you and the path you have chosen to walk. You are a women of prayer! Your submission and love for your husband is so real and true! Thanks for being an amazing inspiration! Praying that "when I grow up..." I'm just like you!

2017 Re-Cap

2017 was an incredible year filled with MANY changes and experiences I never imagined would befall this little country 'gal. January - Started off with by returning to school (full-time) . In pursuit of me following my life long dream of becoming a Paramedic I needed to take Biology, Chemistry, and Math credits as it had been 6+ years since I last took any of the sciences. The Pre-Health  program at Conestoga seemed to be the best option, as I wanted to get my accreditation for  Paramedicine   at Conestoga College. Returning to school was quite the adjustment as I had not been in full time school for 6+ years, but it quickly grew on me as I got to know my colleagues and schedule. It took me awhile to re-teach myself how to study... it's different as an adult! February - Within the first week I found out that as a mature student, using my grades from the "Pre-Health" program (instead of my highschool transcript) they would NOT even look at my application for Param...
