The Miracle of Life

So, many of you have heard me complain about school and say that I hate it, it's a means to an end. Well, in my clinical on Monday I had some really neat experiences that have made it all worth it. I was able to watch 2 babies be delivered!! For little Ella, I helped hold her mother's leg while she pushed and this little person started peeking out. It was the most AMAZING thing I have ever seen!! To be witness to such a miracle was like nothing I could ever describe!! I got teary eyed , and luckily she was a first time mom so she was tearing up too- that made me feel better. I just couldn't hold back the emotion. Then little Reuben came in the next room over. He wanted to just sit inside his mom and not do anything. But, when he decided to come he came so fast and there was another miracle. (I was able to hold back the emotion this time but still had the largest grin on my face that you have ever seen) ;) They were a cute spanish speaking couple but we could all understand how excited we were to see this little handsome man come into the world. I was surrounded by excellent nurses who loved their jobs and knew how to do them well. Thanks Jodi and Shauna for letting me be witness to these 2 new miracles!!!
