I am SO excited to share this nurse graduation session!

Rachel was our babysitter for many years. Rachel had just started nursing school when she started to babysit our son, Leland. At the time Leland was probably 18 months old. And bless her heart she would come over once a week so I could work and it was such a joy to have her around. Over the years, I have watched her balance nursing school with taking on learning nursing positions, and I have been so impressed with her abilities and knowledge.

As of December, she has graduated from nursing school!!!! Woohoo! It has been such a joy to watch her grow and learn into the occupation that the Lord has called her to.

My kids have enjoyed all their fun times with Ms. Rachel, as they call her, and they will miss her as she follows her career  to the ICU of George Washington University Hospital in DC.

*Rachel and her roommate, Kayla, are also our neighbors. And we have walked, biked, and have visited their cats many a time! We will all miss her!

Rachel is known for her love of coffee! We had to have coffee in her session!

This pretty much summarizes nursing school…coffee and books! The beginning of a career!

She looks amazing! I can’t believe is finished with school!! And her career is taking off!

This is one of my favorites!

sooo many books! She is a total rock star for surviving nursing school! I would totally be honored to have Rachel as my nurse!

I just love this one! Everyone should have a champagne toast after graduating!!!
