Nursing School Grad


Today we attended Robin's graduation ceremony (this is a picture of her and her sister). She graduated with her nursing degree from UT Tyler and I'm surprised she didn't work tonight! We missed her pinning ceremony this morning which is where Patricia, who is also a RN, pinned Robin with her own RN pin. We ended up not being able to leave town last night and I still feel like crap so we didn't get up early this morning to make it to Tyler by 10. I guess the pinning ceremony was the one to go to but at least we made it to the second ceremony which was for all graduates of the School of Nursing and Health Science which included a lot more than just the new nurses. They even recognized residents who finished residency at a hospital in Tyler. Can you imagine doing your residency in Tyler, TX? Somehow I don't picture Grey's......

Robin will keep working the night shift in the ICU at a Longview hospital except now she'll get paid a lot more! Robert and I joke that it's a great place for her to start...patients are already critical so she can't screw up too bad. Of course we are just kidding. Robin is very smart...today was her second college graduation. Her first degree is in Psychology and now Nursing. She loves school and breezes through Bachelor degree programs while being mom to 2 girls and a wife to Mike. The Watson gang is pround of Aunt Robin!!!!

It was so an honor for my daughter-in-law Robin to ask me to pin her during her pinning ceremony from nursing school.
