PA Graduate. I AM one!





With 26 gruelling months behind us
of sweat, tears, and blood (seriously!),
we are official graduates of the

A.T. Still University
Master of Science
in Physician Assistant Studies program
.




~Boom Baby~






But I don't know who had more sweat, tears, and blood..
me or him?
It has been long for the both of us, no doubt about that.
I NEVER could have done it without him!
I was only sustained because I had
his support, encouragement, and cooking.
WHAT. A. GEM.
So grateful for him. So in love with him.
My parents and grandpa Johnson made the trip
and they all dressed in blue by coincidence - that happens
to be my school colors! We had a FABULOUS weekend, it was
perfect; everything I hoped it would be.

I feel so loved, so blessed, and so grateful.
Thank you to all my family on my side AND Garrett's side.
I have needed you all!


But I'm not done yet... I still have my boards.
Oh and a baby to birth sometime in the near future.
I plan to take my boards this Saturday if I don't have
her before then!
She and I are on a race to the finish.


I'll keep you posted on who the victor is
and cross your fingers that it's me!
