I love to learn

Learn as if you were going to live forever. Live as if you were going to die tomorrow.
-- Mahatma Gandhi

Wow that could sum up my life - and I love it. The kids were here today for the medical school camp. What a great experience for them and for us. I love it!!! We did surgery today. The kids got to suture pigs feet, really scrub as if they were going into surgery - which is a long crazy ordeal (I did not know), then actually be in a room with a real surgeon acting like he was performing surgery. I learned so much today - it was awesome. I think if I could be a forever student I would. Tomorrow is a lot of lectures - but also venipuncture - which will be a good refresher for us all. I really like the other camp counselors too - we are having so much fun - it's great! I am beat - but this is so worth it.

Oh to a more tired note - Miss Bella did not get to sleep until abot 4:45 last night - yes that is not a misprint and I was the only one who could get her to sleep - so needless to say I am BEAT!!! But she just walked in and said "MMMMMMa Ma" Oh I love her so - words cannot say. She is every beat of my heart - truly. Ok have to try to get some sleep tonight and still have prayers and stories to read with my darling Bella and other things to get done. Plus I am watching Dr. Chavez's dogs while he and his family are in Florida - so have to leave early to get the dogs morning walk in.

So I will end with another great quote about learning . . .

Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
Benjamin Franklin
