Missing my parents and reflections (8 weeks/6 days)

The IUS Banquet I attended this evening was simply amazing.  The production was over the top and it was a grand way to celebrate 70 years.  I’m glad my mother was able to be a part of over 30 years in the IUS nursing department.  I loved being there to represent her, but missed her at the same time.  I started to reflect on raising my kid(s) without my parents and know how much they would have loved/spoiled Baby Turner.

I also started thinking about the different my parents made in the community and now am doing some self reflection on what I want to do to leave my own personal mark!
