One To Go

Two years ago, almost to the date, I started my coursework to become a Lactation Consultant. Today I started my final clinical hours - my lactation internship. 

The last two years have been a lesson in patience and humility unlike anything I expected. But they've also been two years of lessons, really important lessons, in self worth. 

In trusting that I can make myself a priority. 

That I should make myself a priority. 

In acknowledging that I'm capable. 

In letting go of uncertainty. 

In embracing possibility. 

Two years down...one to go...

This morning. 

Smiling and nervous. 

This afternoon.

Still smiling and still nervous. 

And excited for tomorrow.
