Today is my birthday, now I'm 16 years old! I'm so grateful to God for blessing me to complete another year of life. I'm thankful that I am in good health, am getting a good Christian education, and have been able to bless and encourage others through music. It's been so rewarding to be able to use my talents for His glory!
As I begin another year, I have several decisions to make. In December, I'll be taking the GED test to complete my home school education. I feel that God is leading me to become a midwife and have been doing some research to learn more about what is involved and which course of education would be best. I'm also praying about becoming a doula and/or nutritionist.
My parents have been so helpful in guiding me through these decisions and have encouraged me to seek God's will continually. Please pray that God will clearly show His will to me and that I will continue to grow in Him as I follow His footsteps.
I thought it would be fun to share with you a few pictures from when I was younger!

Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

Nope. I was born in 1993.
P.s. I love the pictures you posted of yourself! You were such a cute baby!
To answer your question on the doula course. I'm studying with Childbirth International (www.childbirthinernational.com)
I like it alot because they train doulas all over the world, and you can take to course by text book or over the internet.
The aromatherapist course is from The East West School for Herbal and Aromatic Studies (www.theida.com) On both of these courses they don't have a deadline, so that is nice also. I've been working on them for over a year now.:) The aromatherapist course comes with text books and some essentials oils as well!
If you have any question I would love to help out where I can!
I'd also love to hear what you decide t pursue!
Happy studying!
Laura

Today was my Daddy's birthday too! :)
Happy Birthday precious Eden!
Your Dad and I was given a gift from our
Heavenly Father 16 years ago today...you
will always be our special Treasure! We
are very happy to see you walking in the
ways of YHWH (The Lord) and striving to please Him.
May His blessings be upon you today and forever.
Love always--Dad & Mom
P.S. Loove your pics--enjoyed the
walk down 'memory lane' :)
Happy Birthday, Eden! Hope you had a fantastic day!
Happy Belated Birthday! I hope you do become a midwife. It seems that people nowadays think birth is an "emergency" and must be dealt with at a hospital. I'm sure a lot of people don't want to spend an important moment like that in a loveless hospital.
Happy Birthday, Eden! May YWHW bless you with another year to serve and bring glory to His name! Blessings!
His,
Shani
P.S- Thank you for your comment!
