After living off the island for seven years, it still surprises me that I call it home. I have been thinking about the whole idea of "home" for sometime now. When I first found out I was pregnant I told Luke,"I just want to live in a place that feels like a home." The truth is I think it's been about twelve years since I last felt like I was home. Home to me means love and safety....mixed with a sense of belonging. I have come to realize...I have more than one home and as I cultivate a home for Violet, I am renewed by the homes of my past and inspired by the heavenly home of my future.
While I was at home I got to go to my mom's graduation. My mom has just completed a course through North Island College and is now a Health Unit Clerk. I'm so proud of my mom and her 96% average!!!! She has taught me a lot about perseverance, and determination. Way to go mom!
And in other news....I'd like to congratulate my sister Amber for earning her black belt in taekwondoe. Seven years of hard work.....we're so proud of you Berbs!!!
