School days

I am back in school now. I felt I needed to pursue other goals since the baby thing wasn't happening for us at that time. I decided I was going to go back to school and get my master's in public health and get certified as a group fitness instructor. I passed my GRE with flying colors in May and passed my group fitness certification in August and started school soon after. Back to my alma matter WKU as one of 6 American students in the MPH program. It has been interesting learning new cultures and getting used to new languages. The majority of the students in the MPH program are Indian and African.
Last semester I took 2 classes, one online and one on campus. It was fun being back on campus but much different than my undergrad experience. I found myself thriving in school ( 2 A's last semester) and enjoying having something else to focus my attention on. It took the pressure off Ben and I for a little while in terms of infertility.
Exercise helped too. I have always wanted to teach aerobics but was too chicken to actually sign up for the certification class. I thought I was just too busy. Once I finally committed and passed the class, I was like why did I wait so long? I have been teaching at church and really enjoying it. I hope to get my own weekly class next month at church. Micheal Jackson music is a must and will be on the playlist for my next class.
All in all, I think we are dealing well with what we have on our plate. We tell each other everyday "I love you" and we lean on the everlasting arms of our Father.
