Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center: Blogger's Night Out

I have never been to a "blogger's night out"
so I was thrilled when I was invited to attend one this week
at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center's newest
(and very awesome)
location in Green Township.
Check out them out HERE.

If you are like me, you feel really blessed
to live in a area where we have access to fantastic medical care for our kids.
Maryn has seen by various therapists and specialist at many of the
CCHMC locations, and the facilities and staff have always been exceptional.
We are very thankful for all of the help that she has received.

Now, there are even more campuses to serve more kids,
  and serve them closer to 
where they live!


My understanding is that the Harrison location will be closing soon and the Green Township location
will be opening April 29th!
The Green Township CCHMC is hosting a free opening event that promises fun for the kids
on Saturday April 20, from 11-2.
Go check them out!
Can you believe this awesome swag bag?
Plus I spent the evening laughing and getting to know other local bloggers.
Don't I look fabulous!?
This picture is of Anna, from My Life and Kids (who is pee-your-pants funny), and I
where they are completing the 4th floor to serve 
children with mental health and behavioral issues.
This is just one glimpse into some of the construction going on.
Every detail seems to focus on 
giving patients and their family great care,
in a timely fashion,
and reducing the anxiety that can come from needing to be on a hospital's campus.

There is a ton of natural light, a new therapy clinic that made the therapist side of me drool,
a conference room open to the public,
a large sports therapy clinic,
"West-side" relevant art work and graphics,
and
many fun and entertaining additions to the waiting area and walk paths.
CCHMC also consulted parents to make sure that their designs meet the needs of 
the families that will be served there.

Kim and Jennie from Motherhood Support were also so much fun!
We even carpooled and on the way home, they made sure I 
had a Twitter and owned a website!
What a night!!

If you are on Twitter, my twitter handle is @ticket4thetrain.
I even have Instagram now as ticket4thetrain, as well.
I'd love to see you there!

First of all I would like to say superb blog! I had a quick question that I'd like to ask if you don't mind.

I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.

I've had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out. I truly do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Kudos!
