Day # 17

Today is day #17 being gone from home and my family and my husband and friend.  


I was up early again, about 4 am, went for a walk, but waited until just before 5 am, for safety reasons.  It is really safe here, but then there is always the 'just in case' so I wait until close to 5 am as there is often many people out walking in the morning here, so help would be just a quick yell away. 


The area I walk in is a very nice neighborhood, and is used for walking by many people.


So today we saw some of the women who are due, and they are all just ready...but no labors yet!  I am hoping they will all deliver in the next 10-13 days- ! 


 I have a mom back home due in Dec-that I will need to come back for, plus I do not want to go too long between seeing my ladies either-although I have a few friends who could go see them if needed...


By the way....that reminds me-
I hear Johnny said he would be willing to go see my clients and be a temp midwife-thanks JB!  Maybe if you take some one along with you too, just for their help and a second opinion-so lets see....
 *not Josiah, sorry but you gotta be married and have children to qualify-
*I hear Jamin has been ill, (praying for you by the way)
*Joel's little one is too young for him to be out doing midwifery stuff- so that leaves...
*Phil-yes, he could help you!!   Between the two of you could manage this!  (one to hold the doppler and one to push the 'on' button) 


If you have any trouble-- use the old fashioned fetoscope-it has no buttons!   :)


Ok-back to my life here!


This is a photo of the window I sit at to eat my meals (most of them anyway) thought you might find the view interesting. I do.  It is pretty.  There is a birds nest in the bush, and often I have seen a red bird there-(cardinal-male) .

So we are still waiting.....


Still a visit later today, but in between I will work on some crochet items I am working on, and another article for a midwife magazine that I have been published in a few times already.  Got to get that finished....
Miss all of you
be blessed.  


Psalm 34:

 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.  My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.  O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.  I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.  They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.  This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.  The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.  O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.  O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.  Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.  What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?  Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.  Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.  The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.  The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.  Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.  He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.  Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.  The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
