So, yesterday, I got to hear my baby's heartbeat for the first time! It's so cool to know that I actually have a living baby in there! For some reason, its kind of hard to imagine that all this physical stuff is because of a baby when I can't see anybody or feel anybody. So, for the two people or so that actually read my blog, yes, I'm pregnant. I am also in Vancouver, BC working on my MDIV. This was a bit of a surprise in the first month of classes. But, we're thrilled! And what wonderful timing, since for the first time in 2 years, I'm on a wonderful insurance that covers everything including my midwife. One of the wonderful things about Canada! Hearing the heartbeat was such a thrill and helped me to get through a very late night finishing my diagrammatic summary of the book of Job. What is a diagrammatic summary? It would have helped if that was clearer in my own mind. Sometimes, I love that I'm here and sometimes I hate it. Being back in school and having that be the focus of my life is weird and living in this really nice neighborhood is even weirder. And people are too polite. But I love my Old Testament class and Hebrew when its not killing me. and I am finally making some friends and there are a lot of cool people that care about the city, but not having time for anything but school is strange. Maybe I'll actually start processing all this here again. You know I was supposed to write newsletters about Miami and I never wrote one. I still don't know what to say about Miami. It was quite an experience. |
