I love being a nurse. One of the best decisions I ever made. Home health was fun, but gas is too expensive now. And I need to be home more with my family.

Hey Robertsons! I found your blog through someone else's and thought I would say hello. We are coming back to Tupelo in September for some training I have with the bank and we are hoping to come to church when we do. I can't believe how big your baby has gotten. Hope to see you soon!
