As Jack’s arrival gets closer, everyone is excited- including the residents and staff of Bath Manor Nursing Home. This week I enjoyed 2 showers at work. One shower was given by the Activity Staff for me to share with the residents. The residents played a few games (with prizes too), enjoyed cake and punch, feeling my belly, and although they weren’t supposed to- some brought gifts. I brought in several baby items from home and the residents seemed to enjoy looking at them and touching them. One of my staff members collected advice and created a book for me entitled, “Motherly Wisdom From the Ladies of Bath Manor”. It is beautiful collection of a lifetime of experience with children and parenting.
The other shower was given by my fellow Department Heads. They made it so special- they decorated with balloons and banners, brought in Olive Garden for lunch, had cake (yellow, my favorite!), and were incredibly generous with giving gifts. I can’t wait to see the pictures! Now we have a nice supply of diapers, wipes, clothing, bath stuff, blankets, etc! Their friendship and support means the most to me!
I am very thankful to all my friends at Bath Manor, for their kindness and generosity, for celebrating Jack with me- and for making me feel so special and so loved.
