It's been ages....

I know! A very busy and fun-packed summer. Now I am trying to blog when I should really be dealing with the urgent sets of papers on my desk. A quick update -

we have finally booked our tickets to NZ. Hurray! It was much harder than I thought because it brought home to us the reality of what we are doing (what are we doing?) and it was all a bit more complicated than it should have been because we have to factor in a baby that hasn't been born yet. Got there in the end. Depart 19th March 06. 5 weeks in Oz and then onto NZ to arrive in Auckland on the 24th April. I have also given my notice to Chambers as it's a 6 mth notice period.

I'm now over 30 weeks pregnant - between 8 and 12 weeks to go! Am so grateful to God for the fairly easy time I have had with it all so far. I am one of the lucky ones who has enjoyed being pregnant (so far!). It is getting frustrating that I can't do a lot of simple things and am slow and clumsy. I have never been a particularly girly girl, but I love being part of God's creative process in this way - I feel very privileged to have been born a woman and to have been given this gift of life in me.
