Halloween at CHKD

There are so many reasons why I love being a nurse.  I love all the amazing things that we do together to make our children smile.  Our hospital unit did the wizard of oz and the residents on service helped bring it all to life!

You're in my prayers!

Today is bittersweet.  I am headed to a funeral for a an 8 year old girl!  While that weighs heavy on my heart, I know that she is not suffering any longer.  I made this card, in Eve's favorite color (purple) for her mother & stepdad who remained at her bedside for 7 months while she battled brain cancer.

Random Act of Kindness

When I first joined the Cricut message board - so many acronyms were foreign to me!  One was RAK (random act of kindness).  I have signed up for many swaps and have enjoyed being apart of all of them as they have all heped me learn & grow!  One of the members of the board celebrated her 1 year anniversary of doing a monthly swap called happy mail and to celebrate she is sending out some amazing RAK's.  Words cannot express how excited I was last week when 1) this beautiful box was found in my mailbox and 2) I opened it up and found all of these amazing goodies! 

Welcome Fall!

Oh today was so beautiful in Virginia Beach - temperatures cooling off, windows open!  I am so ready for fall!  I made a card for my chemo buddy and went all out in fall colors!
