Just when we thought things in life couldn't get any crazier....
they DID!
But that's ok. We just put on our big kid pants and started trucking away!
Tony got a 4.0 last trimester and is just starting another bout of school (sounds like he's contracted a serious illness.... careful everyone... it's highly contagious.....) He still loves his program and comes home everyday with new stories for me, new ideas, and a general fervor for learning and trying new things. He is attempting a special project right now, although I can't imagine where he is finding time between school, research, internship hunting, basketball, and keeping up with my ridiculous schedule. He is such a champ... he is even my patient every Monday for 3 hours! He (albeit rather grudgingly) lets me poke around in his mouth and pester him for weeks. I can't believe how lucky I am that he supports me so fully.
Dental hygiene.... wait.... I don't think I want to open this can of worms! In summary, classes and clinic are going very well. The curriculum is challenging, time-consuming, and sometimes tear-inducing. Luckily, I get to come home to my sweet husband every night and he reminds me everyday why I am going through this. Then volleyball workouts remind me why most schools don't let dental hygiene students play collegiate sports! Just one day at a time.....
The sun teases the east coast. It will shine exuberantly, then laugh at you when an icy winds cuts your bones in half. But every day is a little warmer :) We can't wait until summertime. Heck, we would even settle for leafy trees at this point!
You two are such troopers - both very amazing in your own unique ways. Not many people could be tops in their class, stay active and involved in so many other outside activities, be such amazing friends to others, and be wonderful to each other all at the same time. I think you're an incredible dynamic duo. Congrats to both of you...it's an understatement to tell you how proud we are of both of you. We love you!!
