Faith precedes the miracle.
You cannot dream yourself into a character: you must hammer and forge yourself into one.

This was Nathan's White Coat ceremony. It signifies his commitment to the medical profession and science. As they go through school the coats they wear get longer but at the begining they are waist length. Midwestern chooses to give their first year students the coats at the begining as a way for them to understand the gravity of being professional in all facets of their life. Shortly after this ceremony we went and got Nathan some more clothes to go with this "professional attitude" and help him transition.


Nana and Maddie watched the kids for us, then we all met up and had a dslicious Italian dinner.Yum!

What a great picture of you two! I remember Ryan's white coat ceremony. What a super way to start off the four years of school! It will fly and next thing you know, you'll be wondering where time went!
