So, here I am writing my first blog of the year.....and where do you suppose I am? But of course, the birth center. I never before have been in labor with someone while ringing in the new year, but here I am! I only feel bad for this couple because they were really hoping for a tax deduction...oh well, babies will only come when THEY want to, right?
I sit here and think back on 2008, and I am just in awe of where God has taken me... From one birth center to another, from house mother to house occupant.....staff midwife to administrator! From beautiful births to complicated ones, from successful VBAC to an unfair stillbirth, from losing my grandmother to multiple client miscarriages. 2008 was definitely a year of strengthening and stretching. I had many happy days and many sad days, and God got me through each one. I never know what God is going to do and I don't always know why, but I do know that the end of the day, month and even year, He is always there and knows what His plans are for me as well as His purpose ---plans for welfare and not for evil, to give me a future and a hope. With that, I am all good no matter what the year brings....so, here I go ..welcoming 2009!
