Graduation

Ryan graduated from medical school on Friday!  I can't believe it has come and gone.  We accomplished what we set forth to do when we moved to Wisconsin. 

So many emotions filled me that day (and still are!), but the one I felt most was that of thankfulness.  Thankful to Ryan for his dedication to his role of husband, father, and student.  Thankful to our families for their tireless love and support.  Thankful to our incredible friends who gathered around us here in Milwaukee.  Thankful to our boys for understanding when Daddy couldn't be around sometimes and when we frequently told them "no, that costs a little too much".  And most of all, thankful to our Heavenly Father, the Giver of all of the above, and Who carried us through and provided our every need--He is SO good and SO faithful!

Now, get ready for a graduation day photo bomb!

(As an aside, this one was taken 4 years ago at his White Coat Ceremony when it all began--I was pregnant with Charlie, and Abe had just turned 2!  And, I can tell it was in August, not May--we are tan!!)
