Knight in Shining Scrubs

After four long years of homework, study sessions, group projects, frustrating poster presentations, clinicals, exams, reports, and note cards . . .

After the cost of text books, software, scrubs, lab fees, fuel (to and from clinicals), tuition, and basic school supplies . . .

After taking care of all of that while working full-time, dealing with a hormonal wife (whether I was pregnant or not), changing diapers, and getting up in the middle of the night with a sick child . . .

Nathan has graduated!!!

(See the relieved smile?) (And this hot hunk picture is just for me.)


He has his Associates Degree, and after taking the State Board Exam he will be a Registered Nurse. The reason an Associates took 4 years was because he got his LPN first, then worked for a year to meet the RN program requirement, then worked while doing the RN program. (Which they don't recommend.) I couldn't be more proud.

Congratulations, my Sweetiness!
