Only God knows what all the future will hold for me. But I do know that wherever I go and whatever life throws my way, I will strive to live Christ to those around me. I am so grateful for my skills as a midwife and I look forward to using them to serve women both here at home and in Africa.
Enjoy a few pictures of my last few special days in the Philippines.
 |
| With a group of women and babies that I helped give care for/deliver at a party I held for them right before I left - it was such a blessing to be able to see so many! |
 |
| One of my last continuity patients - she ended up delivering in the hospital. |
 |
| I will miss watching "my" babies grow up! |
 |
| The first baby Tianne in the Philippines - she was not to sure about her name sake :) |
 |
| Aaron and his pretty mama |
 |
| Happy boy Christian |
 |
| They were not able to make the party, so some stopped by the clinic to say goodbye - so sweet! |
 |
| Alice and her new baby, Chloe Grace, who she asked me and Aisling to name. |
 |
| A sweet gift from a patient |
The day after my party I was honored by a small graduation ceremony. We have a lovely dinner and then Georgia presenting me with a neckless with original Kalinga beads on it and my certificate of diploma from New Life School of Midwifery. Two years of accomplishment - finished! The Filipino staff sang me a farewell song - so sweet!
 |
| Georgia and I |
 |
| The Filipino girls singing - love you girls! |
 |
| Spending time together. |
 |
| Myself with Hazel and baby Cayleen - my very first catch! |
