at our pinning ceremony there was much to do about whom should have the honor of pinning us! we decided that we were the ones who had worked so hard becoming a nurse that we honor each other by taking turns pinning each other.

Our grad class used a poem by Helen Steiner Rice called Climb 'til your dreams come true...

~Climb 'til your dreams come true~

Often your tasks will be many,

And more than you think you can do.

Often the road will be rugged

And the hills insurmountable, too.

But always remember, the hills ahead

Are never as steep as they seem,

And with faith in your heart start upward

And climb 'til you reach your dream.

For nothing in life that is worthy

Is never too hard to achieve

If you have the courage to try it

And you have the faith to believe.

For faith is a force that is greater

Than knowledge or power or skill.

And many defeats turn to triumph

If you trust in God's wisdom and will.

For faith is a mover of mountains

There's nothing that God cannot do,

So start out today with faith in your heart

And climb 'til your dreams come true!

~Helen Steiner Rice (1900 - 1981)~

HAPPY GRADUATION!~
