Keep calm and carry on



This is David's and I's motto for his upcoming interviews (wait, did I say interview(s).... YES I DID!) Back on August second we were contacted by Midwestern to schedule an interview on Nov. 2nd, of course... we said YES! Then a few weeks ago University of Washington invited us to an interview on Nov. 1st, and then Colorado (Nov 5-6th) and last Indiana(Nov. 11th-13th) So we are trying to 'stay calm and carry on' We feel so giddy inside. Watching our dream unfold into more of a reality then it's ever been. David has worked so hard for this, and frankly... I couldn't be more proud of him for staying true to his path, when the world was telling him give up.

I have been an emotional wreck lately. All the excitement, and fears and hard work of these last two years is coming down to these 4 schools. We are so grateful for the interviews, every interview before Dec. 1st helps our chances of getting into a school.

So right now (Sunday) David is on a flight to Seattle. Anticipation is the only emotion I can describe for sure, but I know there is a whole ball of them wrapped up in this body of mine. I am sure by tonight David will read this (David I had to tell them sometime :) (I still can't believe I kept this secret as long as I have :) and all I want him to know how VERY proud I am of him. Way to go David! We love you! Come home safe!

Love,

Barb
