More good news!

I was able to get my first clinical in Wichita Falls! I start Oct. 18th at North Texas Rehabilitation Center! I'll be there for 8 weeks and it is an outpatient neuro setting, which I think I will LOVE.

This is big news for us because it makes our lives much easier--I'll get to live with Cody and the baby and we'll be close to both of our parents which will be a huge help as far as babysitting, etc (they're pretty excited about this part). I'm also excited because I think this could be a place I would like to work after I graduate if the opportunity came up!

Off topic but more good news--We are almost positive that Cody will NOT have to go to Afghanistan in May. More than 3/4 of his Reserve unit is Lubbock is getting activated to go in May so I was really nervous about it for a while but I think they have enough volunteers. Plus Cody is supposed to be out of the Marines in May (but that doesn't always mean much). He actually would really like to go if it were a different time in his life. I know it's incredibly selfish that I hoped he wouldn't go... I was looking forward to living with him FINALLY and I really didn't want him gone the whole first 9 months of our child's life.

I know we can handle it if he does have to leave again. I chose to marry a strong hearted man who believes in death before dishonor--I couldn't be more proud of him!
