Sturgis...day two

the snow is melted and the sun has come out. it's beginning to feel like springish summer. hurray for spring that i love.
i know why God had us start parenting with babies. i think it's so that you can work up to the schedule of kids. there's a lot going on when the kids are older. soccer, school, band, homework, playing with friends, meals, picking up fund raiser stuff...
yesterday i went to Kelly's class with her to watch a video on puberty. there were 30 fourth graders sitting on the ground giggling when the picture of the body maturing came on. the school nurse did a very good job. each little girl got a packet of stuff they need as they go into puberty. it was fun to be there and see what they do. someday i'm going to do the same thing for a class of fourth grade girls. we talked about it afterwards on the drive home. Kenna and Kelly asked some questions.
i think i love being a nurse already even though i'm not even an RN yet and i haven't worked in the hospital. i love being a nurse because i know what to say in situations that would usually be very awkward. and i love being a nurse because i've learned how to talk to people when they know someone is sick. yeah. it's a good profession. i'm blessed!
