I had a completely different post planned for tonight and then this came in the mail today:

TheFirstChild has been accepted to Medical School. It’s been such a long wait. He’s worked so hard. And worried so much. We’re all delirious with joy and we’ve spoiled our pre-wedding diets with a celebratory dinner. It was worth every single calorie-laden bite!

Congratulations Big Boy! We’re all so very proud of you!!!

XOXO,
Anna
