Congratulations!!!

This is just a little post about my wonderful husband Kurt! It's been about a week since we found out that he passed the Orthodontic National Board exam!!! He took it the end of April and he worked so hard studying for it. For a minute, I thought I was back in dental school. We didn't mind though, since he's been around a ton with his residency. We handled the two weeks of no dad pretty well. And all the hard work paid off. I kept having to remind the girls not to bother dad and make him feel guilty because if he didn't pass, then it would mean more no daddy time....they did pretty well and I think got the picture. Anyway, it was a little anti-climatic opening the letter and reading it to Kurt over the phone. It is pass or fail and after he got done taking the test he was pretty sure he had passed and fortunately he was right! So, I just wanted him to know how very grateful I am to him for all his hard work outside the home and in the home. He couldn't be more patient with the girls and is always willing to lend a hand without me even asking...Kurt and I went out the day he finished his exam and then we waited to find out the results to celebrate with the whole family. We went to Chuck E. Cheese that night...it was perfect for our family! The girls were so excited (especially Annie) about Kurt passing his big test.
Some more exciting news is that we found out they are cutting his program short. The third years aren't that busy and so instead of being done next June, we will be done in February of next year....we are super super excited, just feel like we need to put plans into over drive now. I've got to get the house ready to sell and then Kurt's got to find some opportunity in CO! We love it here and will be so sad to leave, but are very much looking forward to moving closer to family!!!
