I have had to change my path by 1 degree many times. My path to parenthood, my path to health, my path to college, my path to becoming a wife. Now, however, I am having to change my path yet again. By 1 degree.
I have mentioned people that have been a blessing to my journey many times before but my journey as of late has given me another group of people that seek after God and have opened their hearts to our family. Jackie, Dave, Andy, Heather, Eric, Jillian, Ryan, and last but definitely not least Jenni have been placed in our life at just the correct moment to open my eyes to see the awesome things that God has in store for my life. They have been an amazing support, a lot of fun, but most of all have shown love to the least of these. This group has pulled us under their wing and pulled us in tighter when the path became rockier than we hoped. Encouraged me as my path needed to change by 1 degree.
What is the 1 degree? I am changing my degree through Augustana College and am majoring in Interdepartmental studies with an emphasis on Education for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, Sign Language Interpreting, and Religion. I can still become certified through NIC but I will do it a little differently than other people. I will do it while still fulfilling my role as a wife and mother. I am excited for what God has in store for me and my family!
Sometimes the path just needs to change by 1 degree.
