What a huge milestone we passed this morning. After 3 years of dating, 9 1/2 years of marriage, 3 kids, 4 dogs, 6 jobs, 7 moves, 2 houses and 8 years of college- Dale left this morning for his last day of classes!!! Now he is strictly seeing patients. For the next 12 months he will have 12 month long rotations. Some will be local. Some will be out of town. He will visit Kentucky in May, Salt Lake City in July, Tacoma in October, and Denver in December. (i think i'm missing one) I think we have only ever spent 3 or 4 days apart. I'm not really sure how it will be for a month on my own! The kids and I will be so busy! We have a dance or gymnastics class 5 days a week! Dale has been really good to work carpooling into his schedule. He tells me that he is making up for the year that he will be MIA. I think it will be hard for him to be gone for so long- but I have a feeling he will be to busy to miss us! I can't possibly articulate how proud I am of Dale. He made a decision (a big one!) and has followed through. I will never know how he has managed to be such an amazing husband and father, and handle the extreme work load of medical school. The only times I ever feel neglected is during finals:) He has juggled it all beautifully. 3 years of residency should be interesting...CONGRATULATIONS DALE!
