Lawson is having a great time in the Alpharetta High School Marching Band. This band is 5 years young and already marching Class 6A. Their show this year is awesome. When I watch Lawson march, I feel like the proudest parent ever. He has fit right into this band and loves the drum line. His band director and percussion teacher are awesome. We are both so blessed with our move to Atlanta.

Work is going well and my clinics are very close to being JACHO prepared. I am excited about being at Emory and the opportunity to share in the culture of learning at this academic and research hospital and university. I hope to work on campus in the future, but until then, I have a huge job that allows me to share a vision for patient care and help bring order to chaos!

Labor Day with Mom and Dad

It was so good to spend Labor Day Weekend with my parents, my sister, and my kids. Of all the people in my life, no one stands before my family. My parents are one of a kind people and have been the greatest influence in my life. I pray everyday that God will keep them safe, healthy, and guide their every step. The hardest part of moving to Atlanta was creating more distance between us. My parents have been nothing short of 100% supportive of my move and are very happy for us living here. I only wish they could be here, too. My sister, Vicky, deserves accolades, as she never leaves my parents side when she is with them. She is the first of us to get to them when they need help, and she makes them laugh! We had a good time together, and we never take for granted our time anymore. Mom.....next time I order flowers, I'm going to have Dad just pick them up!!!!

Love you all forever.
