I am so excited that I graduate in three days!!! I can't believe this day is almost here. I have been working towards this for years, and it feels so good to know that I am done with school! For awhile, I anticipated going on to get my doctorate, but I am going to enjoy no school for awhile. I did not take time for a break before college or before grad school, so it looks like time for some much deserved time off. I cannot wait for Saturday!
Other than that, things are good. I am not feeling as bad as I was. I think I am near the end of the morning sickness stage. There has been some confusion over how far along I am because the baby is kind of small. My guess is I am around 10 - 11 weeks. The doctors say it could be as far along as that or even 12 weeks, or we could be closer to 8 weeks. They say they will know more when the baby gets bigger. So we could have a baby around Thanksgiving, or closer to Christmas. I am going with the December 8th date.
I have an OB appointment on Monday. They will just do a check-up. They say it is standard not to do an ultrasound until around 12 weeks. So I will get another ultrasound next trip to the OB and hopefully we will know more about the baby's due date. I am excited to know when the baby is coming. I am also excited not to be feeling as sick as I was. I really hope that part of this journey is over. I am sure part of the sick feeling is gone because I don't have to worry about exams and papers anymore! Well I will update more later.

Graduation is upon me
I am so ready for school to be over! This has been a long time coming. I graduate on Saturday, May 16 with my MDiv. I have been working for years for this, and I am so happy it is almost completed.
It is entirely too early on a Monday morning. Monday's are non-school days for me, so since I am pregnant I should be allowed to sleep in. Not today! Today is senior day at school. We get to pick up our caps and gowns, we practice graduating, we do exit interviews, and have the senior luncheon. There is also the senior softball game against our professors. I won't be playing in that game.
One more week of work for me. I have a paper to finish, two book reviews to write, and a take home exam to do. This is all due by next Monday. I also go to school once during exam week. That is next Tuesday. I go to do a presentation. My presentation is done. So as of next Tuesday, I will be done with school! I cannot wait.
Finishing school pregnant and sick has not been fun, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. There should only be a few more weeks of sickness. Hopefully, with school finished, I will feel somewhat less sick. I know I am nervous regarding all this work I have to do in the next week. I am anxious to see how different I may feel next Wednesday. Well, that's all for now. More later.
