Sendin' a Shout Out

Have you ever met someone and instantly bonded with them? That's the way things were for us three girls.

This girls came into my life with this crazy nursing program. I'll tell you a little about them. That's Shannon on the left. She's awesome. She works on a surgical floor, has a couple of kids with the same "kid issues" that mom's experience on a daily basis. She frequently threatens to gouge her own eye out with her pen. Okay so you all probably don't think that is especially funny but I do. And really, that's what counts, right?
In the middle is Cicily. She's the bomb. She never studies but has an understanding of anatomy and physiology that would put most physicians to shame. You wanna know exactly where the hepatobiliary duct is and what it does? Just ask Ciss. She can tell you. All the while, Shannon and I are looking at each other and thinking the same thing... "Is there a hepatobiliary duct?" Well, Shannon and I aren't quite that bad but next to Ciss, we look like it!
I was thinking about these girls today. (We took our last final today.) I've come to the conclusion that God puts people in your life for a reason. I truly believe that some of those people are destined to become like soul mates. They make you stronger, smarter, happier, and an all around better person. That's what my girls do for me. I only hope that I have been able to touch their lives in the same way.

Shannon, Shelly, Cicily

Love the pictures! Sorry you missed last night you might have needed a nerve pill though. It was wall to wall and floor full of people. I think there was 27 or 28 here. It is always such a let down when its over. I work 2 weeks and its over in 2 or 3 hours. By the way you look extra extra pretty in the last picture. Love you lots!
