This morning we sent our first baby off . . . to her “grown-up” world — in the far-far-away land of Cincinnati, Ohio. We hugged and kissed her good-bye at the Minneapolis airport….then drove off…..and although it felt wrong . . . it also felt right. My tears were a mix — part sad – but alot happy and proud of our girl. She’s a brave, strong & sensible girl (woman) who is very capable and equipped to enter her nursing career doing what she does best — caring for others with her God-given gifts.
