BSN and Baby Bump

Yesterday I walked across that stage eight months pregnant, diploma in hand, and heard an entire auditorium give me a standing ovation.

BSN and Baby Bump

I’m not going to lie - I ugly cried for about ten minutes afterward.

Four years of nursing school while planning a wedding, getting engaged, and growing a human. Some people told me I should take a year off, that it was too much. I didn’t listen. Marcus took about a hundred blurry photos because his hands were shaking from crying (yes, my fiancé is a softie and I love him for it).

Honors, by the way. Because when you’re doing it all, you might as well do it right. Sophie arrives in six weeks and I start at Rex Hospital in July. Ready or not, here we come.
