Bring It On

Yesterday, I started my birthday picking up dog waste, had surprise cheesecake delivered to me, slept in, was treated to breakfast, cleaned, napped, comforted a Jewish family in distress, received a thank you page from the ICU team, witnessed the birth of a stillborn baby and held the hand of a nurse as she recounted her own experience of losing a child.

If the coming year is anything like my birthday, I will be blessed, transformed, challenged and affirmed. Thank you all for being on this journey with me. I look forward to sharing my life with you.

Birthday Blessings

Tonight, I witnessed the birth of baby Isabella. Isabella was a stillborn, little girl. Thanks for sharing your family with me, little one. And, I am blessed to share my birthday with you.

Deathly Hallows

Tonight, I held a 97-year-old woman and a newborn infant in my arms as they passed from this life into the next. Nights like tonight are hard, but they remind me of my calling and God's willingness to be with me.

I hope no one else dies tonight.
