Oh what a day!

I am lost for words after Friday... I received a letter that congratulated me on being nominated for the 'Midwife of the Year' Award by one of the women I worked with whilst on placement. Still in shock, I had to giggle because I didn't know what else to do... it was strange being nominated for such an award particulary as I am not quite a midwife!

In the scheme of things, I would never strive to do what I do only to receive something such as this. I do what I do only because I feel it is every womans right to have a midwife that listens and assists in the ways that are most important to her. It just made me realise that I am fulfilling my purpose in this role which has always been my ultimate goal. I am just completely taken aback that this woman has taken the time to appreciate me in this way even though it is everything that she deserved. I should be thanking her for providing me with the opportunity to do what I love doing.

Thank you so very much N. xoxo
