Saturday Call Shift

Precovid, the kids and I would visit Dave regularly on his weekend call shifts, when covid hit, those were completely cut off. As hospital life has returned to its new normal, it seems the opportunity doesn't present itself like it used to. The kids are older, we are busier, Dave is busier at work, etc. On this particular Saturday, the kids were determined to bring the old tradition back. Piper even implemented a countdown about 10 days in advance. Instead of just popping over to visit Dave, the kids wanted the whole tour, his office, the Doctor's lounge, where I work, where surgeries take place, where the babies were born, you get the idea. Everyone is older and much more curious. So, we did all of that, we spent over 2 hours wandering the halls and learning about what happens where. The kids had all sorts of great questions. We hooked them all up with the proper attire so they could go anywhere, under Dave's direction, of course. One of the highlights was a baby being born as we got to the Women's Center. We heard this fresh cry and then the music overhead indicating a delivery. The kids talked about it for days. Until next time! 

All scrubbed up! 

Fam fun. 

Future health care providers.
