i took my funeral directing and embalming exams on monday & i had so much anxiety about it. i feel a little silly for talking and worrying about it as much as i did, but it would not have been good to fail. the night before my exams some sweet sisters from church brought me a gift with some much needed encouragement & my dad and katelyn left a voicemail that made my heart want to burst. after my test, my friend cammie had something waiting for me on my doorstep. jonas scratched my back and took me out to get my mind off of waiting for the results. it took all that i had not to call the KY board of funeral directors and ask what was taking so long! ha. when i called them, they happily announced my score of 94 on the law exam(i totally know what i missed too. ugh.) and 95 on the embalming section. unfortunately, i had made myself a little tired with worry, so i was too tired for it to feel real. i almost couldn't look at the rose they got me at work. i have just been so grateful for everyone's support. i have tried to tell them all, but it does not seem like enough. jonas took me out for steak & his uncle got me a gift!
it has not just been support over the last week, but in the months leading to this day and the encouragement given to me since i first started mortuary school. like the long talks with my sister and the little coffin cake my mom had for me before i moved to cincinnati for school. thank you all!
