Congratulations, Erika!

We look forward to having another nurse in the family! Our niece Erika will be joining my sister-in-law Ann, my sister-in-law Eileen, and my niece Rachel, all nurses! Erika had her pinning ceremony last night.

Beautiful Erika!

  1. I hope if Jackie @ Teacher's Pet reads this post she doesn't get scared of Erika's white uniform and white starched hat with the black stripe! Yikes!
    Love,
    Eileen

  7. She's got those stunning eyes that seem to run in your family! It's been a long while since I've actually seen a nurse in a hat, and wearing white. I like it! I wonder if that is a NY thing. I wish we would go back to that here...she looks so professional.

  8. How wonderful! Congratulations Erika! What a beautiful girl she is. She looks so professional in her nursing outfit and hat. I know she has worked very hard and I know how proud all of you are of her. Our world certainly needs nurses, and besides, I don't think you can have to many nurses in the family :>)
