So, the summer is over. No more sleeping in until whenever we want. No more working without worrying about homework. No more trips up north. No more starting movies at 11p because there's nothing else to do. Essentially, goodbye Boredom. Hello, nursing school.
The only thing not gone from summer is this heat-107 degrees on Saturday. Gross.
Nursing got off and running last week. We've already got a paper and a test under our belts in less than a week! Preceptorships will begin soon, so I'm praying for a nice and patient preceptor. My request for two oncology preceptorships didn't work out, but I'm on a telemetry floor (cardiac). It won't be boring!
Dan is still waiting for a placement for student teaching and observation. We're praying that it's at a local high school close to La Mirada, since he'll be there every day next semester. His first quarter begins on September 14th...and he'll be off and running, too!
Between 3rd year nursing school and accelerated student teaching, we may not see each other much in the near future. That will just make our time together all the sweeter. It sure will be hard to get used to, though!
On a different note, Dan's grandma Mignon passed away last Wednesday at the age of 87. Her doctor said she only had about a year left to live...23 years ago. Amazingly, she died August 26th, 26 years to the day after her husband died. She will be greatly missed :(
Well, this cannot be a long blog because...I have homework. Ugh.
Loving each other while standing on the Rock!

This is a little late, but we've been busy...
Dan and I have been married for a whole year! Looking back to before we were married, I had a hard time believing God would allow us to get married at all, let alone celebrate anniversaries. This year has been full of trials and obstacles, but with the love we have for each other and God's grace, we have made it through.
To celebrate, we spent in a night in a Hawaiian hotel in San Diego and went to the San Diego Zoo. It was a wonderful time of relaxation and laughter and love.
Thank you to everyone who has encouraged us, prayed for us, supported us and loved us through this year.
I pray there will be many more years to celebrate the unity of Dan and I in Christ.

Human Life
Abortion is legal for any reason you like, if you go to the right places.
Politicians are beginning to wonder how much health care and elderly or terminally ill person deserves.
Birds choking on plastic bottles is more of a problem than people dying of dehydration without the water in those plastic bottles.
Somewhere in our nation's history, the value of a human life has fallen by the wayside.
Only God gets to decide how and when we should die.
Perhaps, if more people paid attention to what God thinks and has shown us through His word, a human life would be more than a number, more than a price tag, and more than an inconvenience.
