This weekend Steven and I had the wonderful opportunity of spending 2 days with all of his fellow residents, 1st-3rd years, along with their spouses and children. The retreat was held on Sunday and Monday at a retreat center in Pine Knoll Shores, NC. I was expecting it to be a "bonding" time and even expected that we might have to do a ropes course type of activity, but thankfully - I was wrong. We did bond, just not on a ropes course. Steven and the other doctors had to attend conferences while I spent time connecting with other wives and husbands of residents. Steven and I had a blast getting to know these people who are going to be so entwined in our lives over the next 3 years. I look forward to investing myself in these relationships that God has given me and pray that I'll be a reflection of Christ to this diverse group.
Steven is in a class with 8 other residents, 5 guys and 3 girls. Steven has been amazed at how quickly the group has bonded and I'm sure that we will become like family during the next 3 years.
Above is a picture of most of the ladies on Sunday night and one that I love of me and Steven.
