Do I even dare start writing again!? Many, many things have changed since I last posted in February 2013!! A lot of life lived!
We welcomed our daughter, Coralynn Neva, to the world on May 18, 2013 in Indianapolis. Shortly, thereafter, Blake began applying for graduate school, and we traveled several places for his interviews.
We found out in January 2014 that we would be moving from Indianapolis, IN to Cleveland, Ohio for him to being schooling at Case Western Reserve University to become a certified registered nurse anesthetist.
On May 1, we were surprised to learn that Baby Hawk #2 was on the way!!!!
At the end of May, we packed up our home in Indianapolis, said "goodbye" to our friends, church and our home of 3 years and moved to Cleveland, just in time for Blake to start school on June 2!
Slowly, but surely, Cleveland is becoming our new home.
Our pace of life, routines and daily habits have changed and morphed to fit into Blake's school and clinical schedule. I have adjusted to being a stay-at-home mom/household manager, and Blake has class and/or clinical at The Cleveland Clinic every day. As soon as we get used to his schedule, it changes. Such is the life of a medical professional, I've learned!
2014 has been a year of adjustments and really learning to trust the Lord and know that his plans are best. He has provided in so many ways, beyond what we ever could have imagined! We are so looking forward to what He has for us this coming year!
There are so many things to look forward to. We are returning to Indiana to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family. Blake's family will be visiting us in Cleveland over the Christmas holiday. And, our SON is due January 6!
Though we are counting down the months that remain in the CRNA program for Blake, we are doing our best to live intentionally in this season of life. There are many transitions ahead for us, but we draw peace from the fact that our God is good. He is faithful. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Hosea 6:3 Oh, that we might know the Lord! Let us press on to know him. He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn or the coming of rains in early spring.
