April ~ Started the midwifery course & was moved to tears at each class.  Gave & received pelvic exams.  Found out that my anemia had returned.  A mallard couple visited us 2 or 3 days in a row 🙂  I had the absolute honour & pleasure of palpating unborn babies & listening to their heartbeats!!  That was so awesome.  Precious!!

August ~ Nana fell & broke her hip & bent the rod in her thigh.  Mom was hospitalised for chest pains.  Quit the Total Body Makeover due to scary things happening in our neighborhood & I didn't feel safe leaving my girls home alone while we went to the gym.  We went camping & encountered a bear!  Trisina gave birth while we were camping.  We looked at houses to buy in Rio Linda.  Began doubting my ability to be a midwife.  Some kid started leaving his shoe on my front porch, with a note on it.  Started to seriously consider buying a house here, after looking at the models in Natomas.  Started the Biblical Prophecy seminar.  Started packing.  I became obsessed with bento.  I was disowned by my Mother.  Went camping again.  Didn't get approved for the house & began planning our move to Denver again.
