acceptance or deliverance?

By -



Well, I've neglected telling people about this, but I heard from the U of Us English Department... and needless to say the letter was short. However, I was really shocked because my application looked pristine for an English Department, even theirs. So, I did some research and apparently there are some loop holes one must jump through that I was not aware of... but-->

I think I'm thinking of it as a deliverance rather than a rejection, because now I have another reason to NOT COMMUTE to Salt Lake every week.

To redeem my ego, I heard from USUs Political Science Department and it was a YES!!!

So, I'm going to USU in the fall, I've let my principal and district know, and now all I have to do is decide whether I'm going to study English or Political Science. I know it will be a great time and I'm really excited for the opportunity to get my masters.

Yay for USU! Who wants to go to the U anyway?? (: I remember back when we were applying for Physical Therapy schools, we considered the U at first, but in the end didn't even bother applying. As we understood it, applying for any upper-ed program there is...well...political, to say the least. But I am jealous that you get to be in Logan: I sure miss that place! Congrats!!

I am so happy for you. I know you will do well. Will it be hard to transfer back from teacher to student?

Congratulations my friend. You'll do great. Best of luck. I heartily recommend making prank calls to the schools who rejected you. It did wonders for my self-esteem.

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

By -
Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
