Whahoooooooooo!!!!!!!! Happy Day!!!!!

Today I am officially a nurse! I took my test on Tuesday morning and left feeling like I probably failed. I didn't really want to tell many people that I had taken it because then I would have to tell everyone that I failed. Now after waiting two agonizing days for the results I can officially say that I passed and I am an LPN! I really wish I could say that I am done with school and that I am an RN but I have two more semesters until that happens. But this is a milestone and I will take the day to brag a little and celebrate that my dream of becoming a nurse is now a reality.

I know that it has taken a lot of hard work and diligent effort to see this dream become reality. We are so proud of you and that you had the desire to set such a worthy goal in chosing a profession that renders service to humanity. Good luck as you finish your RN.
