Sorry it took so long to get back on with updates. Work has been exhausting! Learning so much, so fast. I must admit that the with Holidays upon us, witnessing first hand the end of life has had a huge impact on me. I find myself growing with every experience, every new procedure, every encounter and with every death. With every moment I'm on the Unit I find myself loving my job more and more everyday!
Christmas break wasn’t exactly a break. Nonetheless it was filled with family and love. Mom and Dad came to visit and brought Nathan and David with them. It was such a wonderful gift to see my son after 4 months. We all managed to finding sleeping space in our two bedroom apartment. We did a little of this and a little of that. I took everyone on a small tour of UMC. We took a drive by Morgan's school and the kids chased the Wild Geese. Christmas was a blast. Christmas came a day early for us for I worked Christmas evening. Lambeau, our beloved four legged family member managed to tear through his gifts within minutes. It was smiles and laughter as the morning moved on. I must admit I felt a bit spoiled. I was just enjoying the amazing way Holidays seem to bring families together. Cherished times! The kids Grandma Diane (David's Mother) came to visit for an evening which was a treat as well. Before long it was time for us to part. Sad as always but I’m always assured they are only a phone call or plane trip away. Thank goodness for technology!
Pictures sent by Chrissy of her and Lil' G modeling their Christmas gifts. They were missed during our festivities but we are hoping to see them soon.
Morgan turned 12 years old during the Christmas Holiday. Twelve? Really? Already? I ask myself, where has the time gone? They just grow up so darn fast and right before your eyes. She is a good kid as is her brother and I’m both excited and a little anxious for the upcoming year full of hormones.
Finding myself blessed, loved and oh so fortunate :) I hope everyone else was as blessed this Holiday season as we were!
