to God be the glory

I could hardly sleep Tuesday night, I was so anxious about seeing my grade on the NCLEX. I had driven down to Bourbonnais to surprise Ande for her birthday with Caitlin. So I stayed up talking with Cait about it until almost 2 am. I still couldn't sleep, so I wrote Christina a letter while everyone else was sleeping, trying to manage my time to spend as much of it with the girls as possible. I finally fell asleep at 3, or shortly after. I was up at 7:30 when I heard Jami & Ande getting ready for their Christian Faith class. I tried to make myself fall back asleep, as I had 4 different dreams (that I can remember, there may have been more) that I failed my exam. So I was more nervous to check.... but Caitlin had gotten up and ran to the living room to see if I had checked yet. I said no, so she brought me my laptop so I could log on and see if they were posted. They hadn't been posted. So I laid back down on the couch with my laptop by my side. Cait crawled on the other couch to go back to sleep. I leaned over and thought, "Ok, I will hit the refresh button ONE time, and if they're not up yet, I'm going to sleep." As I clicked, the "your results are not ready at this time" disappeared, and "Quick Results Ready" appeared. I slowly sat up, so as to not disturb Caitlin, and grabbed my credit card. I entered the information and clicked next.... as my heart was racing, this informational page that I cared nothing about popped up. So I clicked again...... and my heart stopped.

Grade: Pass

I stared at it for a good 30 seconds before I was able to mutter, "Cait? I passed!" She JUMPED off the couch, and ran to my side to see for herself. "Call EVERYONE!" So I began calling people that had been praying so faithfully for me....

God is faithful, to the very end. To Him be all praise, honor, and glory.
