Congratulations on Graduation, Daddy!

 We are so proud of you, Dr. Daddy!  It's hard to believe you are FINALLY DONE with training!  Hallelujah!  Can you believe how long our road has been?  Well, I mean MY road with you in training has literally been lifelong - as has Anna's - but what I'm really talking about is your's and Mommy's.  It seems like yesterday you were studying for the MCAT's; interviewing all over creation; getting accepted into various schools in OHIO, studying, studying, studying, interviewing, interviewing, interviewing then working, working, working and NOW!  More studying and working but hey!  At least now you are at the top of the heap, right?

 What Mommy really loves about these pictures is who looks happier, Mommy or Daddy?  I'm going to go with Mommy here.

 And here...

 And here!

 And we are so happy for our friends who graduated too, including Miss Carrie (we're glad you're staying close by, Miss Carrie!)

And Miss Kristy who is literally Mommy's most favorite shopping buddy so what would she do if you weren't staying?  We're glad you're going to be close by, too.  What you are looking at here folks is a picture of the other side of Daddy's coin.  On the one side you've got Daddy's "work wife" who - in HER words (ha ha, Miss Kristy now you are going to eat those words) "nags" Daddy at work and on the left, of course Daddy's wife who nags him at home.  No quotations necessary.
Daddy we are so proud of you.  Mommy always knew you would do it.  Mommy can't wait to see what you do with your career.   I know you are going to make a difference - a huge difference - in so many people's lives (you already have!)  All the hours, all the work, the stress, the headaches, the heartaches, the rice and beans dinners it's all so worth it when you use your first big paycheck to buy Mommy a huge diamond ring.
Oh, wait, what I meant to say was it's all so worth it when you see a smile on the face of...Mommy, when you buy her a big fat piece of expensive jewelry to thank her for her unwavering devotion.
Okay, okay seriously.
Well, seriously now I forget where I was going with all of this.  Anyway go be a Dr. Daddy.
We love you.
XOXOXO
Mommy, Lilly, Anna and Colors
