One day a long time ago, I had an idea. (yes, that is me, born at Skiff!)
I hoped that one day I would come back to the place of my birth and decorate the walls (ok, really I only cared about eating and sleeping but pretend with me). Today, after years of talking, planning, shooting, choosing, editing, printing, etc, 28 images were deliverd to the Skiff Medical Center Labor and Delivery wing. Each patient room will have canvas images as will the two halls surrounding the rooms. The hospital is in the process of remodeling those rooms and we were able to ‘finish’ one of them.
A huge thank you to the staff, nurses, my Erica, the Skiff Foundation and my lab president Dave! Mr President drove to town today to help deliver and hang canvas prints. It was a special day! I think the word was out today…..there was alot of traffic checking on us. It was great!
The boxes overfilled the bed of my son’s pickup.
A few…
If you know me, well, if I think it, I say it. So I do believe it was about this time when I asked Dave how the nurses might care for the canvas. Seriously, babies will be born right there, who knows what kinds of bodily fluids might test the canvas ; )
Notice Erica wearing her Amy logowear ; ) good girl!!
As we were hanging images I wanted to tell them the stories about each baby. These are ‘my’ babies and I adore them all. This baby behind us is Candence at her newborn and then Cadence at 1. I love seeing them together.
One hallway complete! The canvas prints are 24×30 and 24×24, they are not little!!
The nurses chose Tait as the image that would add sparkle to their day. This is located right by their station!
We love you Dave, thank you so much for your help!
It is a honor to have my images in the hospice wing and now labor and delivery. My heart feels blessed!
