19: Carey - CPA exam, first seed for living abroad & first baby

January 25, 2021 • Carey • Season 2

All my life, all I wanted was to have babies and stay home. That was about the biggest dream I could dream for myself. But first, I had to get through the blasted CPA exam. In 2007 I busted my butt to study 5 days a week, on top of a full time accounting job, to make sure I passed that test on the first try!

To my surprise, I passed the exam and came up with a positive pregnancy test at Christmas 2007.

During my pregnancy, unbeknownst to us, God was casting vision for our future by sending Nathan on a business trip to Singapore. Even though it would be years before we boarded a plane to move abroad, the Lord was already planting seeds. What a kind, patient Father He is!

After a rocky, emergency delivery, we were overjoyed to welcome our first baby into the world and kick off the incredible chapter of parenting. My dream of becoming a mother had come true and I couldn’t be more thrilled.
