Update from Poco
Hey Everyone! So I guess it is far past time for an update from me. I realised that I haven't posted since the beginning of June so my summer was pretty good. I was at Qwanoes all summer and it was trying at times but totally worth it. The CIT's and other random staff that came through dishpit were awesome! Sometimes I would be annoyed and frustrated but now that I am looking back at it, it was an awesome summer that God used to shape me even more.
Once I got home I had a two day turnaround and I started going to Douglas College. I am taking 5 classes this semester and so far it has been pretty good and really busy. I have 4 Sports Science classes ( called Human Kinetics or Kinesiology at other schools) and one Math class. I am loving the sport science classes and I am excited that I get to do 3 more years of them! Things with my family are going pretty good! Sometimes things can be a little tense but overall it is good. I sorta have a job. I am working for my Dad whenever he needs me to, but I am also looking for a job that will be more regular. I have applied at a few places but I am still waiting to here back from them.
I got plugged back into my church as soon as the summer ended and I was asked to lead our gr. 5-7 youth group, which consists of anywhere between 4-8 kids depending on the week and what we are doing. They are pretty awesome and I love to hang out with them and teach them about God. 3 of them are going to Juniors retreat at camp next weekend (2 boys and 1 girl) and I'm going with them and I am counselling.
It has been weird being home and not around alot of people all the time. At times I love having lots of time alone but most of the time I find myself wishing that people were around all of the time. I have discovered that I really don't know what to do with so much time on my hands. I think that I need to pick up a hobby.
So I am officially an Aunt. My sister had her baby on Wednesday morning, a week and 1day late. Brielle Louisa Nieboer was born at 6:42am on Wednesday, October 15, 2008. She weighs 9 pounds 7 ounces.
My sister had wanted to have a home birth but after hours of labour, her midwifes made the decision to send her to the hospital because the baby wasn't coming down the birth canal so my sister had to have a C-section. She is doing pretty good and she is at home already but she isn't allowed to do any lifting or anything that strenuous for at least 2- 3 weeks. She is on mild pain medication so she isn't in that much pain. Prayer that she would heal quickly would be much appreciated!
So this is my life thus far. Miss you guys! I praying for all of you! Love you all tons!!
