oh yeah....

and something else that happened last month....HUGE fire across the street. Sad day. Super scary.


Fire fighters in flip flops. Only in the Philippines...


Praise the Lord no one was hurt, and the fire was put out quickly before reaching our house and the clinic.

Please pray for the families who no longer have a home and are still trying to pull their lives back together.

And she's back!

Yes! This MIA writer for Siblings United has returned to the blogging hemisphere after triumphantly conquering a 3 week monster of an assignment--76 pages (reformatted down from 102 pages) of agonized over information--just some of the complications possible in labor and how to manage them. Oh pain. But oh so interesting. I love my job :)



Aaaaand....we FINished Anatomy and Physiology and are now taking Analytical Writing...definitely starting to feel like I'm on the homestretch.


This past month was just the usual:

More babies

More happy families

Neonatal resuscitation...gotta save those babies!

A Filipino/American wedding

A closer look at the lovely balut (no WONDER they only sell these things at night when it's dark :P )


And of course, God is good. He never ceases to amaze me.

Have you not know? Have you not heard?The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; His understanding is unsearchable. he gives power to the faint, and to Him who has no might He increases strength.

Isaiah 40:28-29
