a day to remember

Today as a med student I was blessed to witness something truly miraculous... the birth of a child. No matter how many times this may happen in my career ahead, I think I will always remember this day. My favorite part was when the dad first saw his little girl. I think I can describe it best by saying that I watched a man fall in love. So, so beautiful. (And yes, I cried :-)

Have a beautiful day, and a wonderful weekend! I know I'm looking forward to it-- I'm heading to San Francisco for my good friend Micheal's wedding. Can't wait!! The bonus is that I get to see my sister (and her awesome dog Marlo) too. See you soon Christy!! I'll take lots of pics, and 'see' you all again soon. Much love~

happy mother's day!

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers... especially mine!

"Mothers of children, even if they have a thousand, carry each and every one fixed in their hearts, and because of the strength of their love they do not forget any of them. In fact, it seems that the more children they have the more their love and care for each one is increased." -Saint Angela Merici
