Why I do what I do, and I love it.

It's so hard to describe my job to someone who has never experienced a NICU before. The concept of a 1 pound baby just doesn't come out right in words. I saw this video earlier this week, and it made me fall in love with my job, all over again.

Well, I didn't have a 1 pounder, but I sure wish you would have been there as our nurse when I had my NICU experience with my almost 7 pounder! I know you're a blessing too those families that are hurting!

I'm SO proud of you and what you do! I know it's hard sometimes-well, always?- leaving your precious Logan, but the gift of hope you are keeping alive for the families of those babies is so critical for them. Thanks for being willing to do it.

And thanks to the nurses who kept you when you had to go back into the hospital when you were too early and too orange! :^) mom
