I can't believe how fast the last 2 weeks have flown by! Nate is learning leaps and bounds and has even ran a few cases on his own and several with minimal help. He has been averaging 13 hours at the hospital and then usually studies for 3-4 hours everyday. During the time he studies, he has to write up short care plans, read through 9-10 chapters for a test each month, write long care plans and then read up on the cases he will be doing the next day. I am so impressed with how diligent he has been with his time. He always tries to eat supper with us which is his down time at the moment. He tries to get everything done Monday through Saturday that way he can take Sunday off to spend quality time with us! We all have adjusted pretty well to this change.
I will try and take a picture of him in his scrubs when he comes home one of these days!
Last week the kids and I made a countdown garland and each week one of the kids gets to tear one off representing Nate completing another week! This is something we all look forward to doing on Friday night or Saturday. Both of us agree that this season of life will go by quickly.
Just wanted to give a quick update to let family and friends know how things are going.
That's all for now! Till next time,

A letter to my hubby
Dear Nate,
I wanted to let you know how proud of you I am! You have worked so hard this last year during the book work portion of CRNA school. Your grades & persistence of studying day in and day out...has paid off! The next 16 months are going to be another adventure that I am looking forward to going through by your side. As you start your clinicals tomorrow, I have confidence that you will overcome many challenges that will come your way this first week. I know there will be early mornings to get prepared for the cases that day but I am excited to see how you will excel and grow into your new role. The hours will be different from what we have come to know as normal over the last year. We will miss our lunches together but that makes us all the more excited to see you when you get home to have supper with us! I'm not the only one who is proud of your accomplishments over the last year: you have the full support of your parents, my parents and all of our siblings. The sacrifices we are making now will be worth it in the end. I love you and again I'm so proud of you! Good luck on your first day of clinicals tomorrow!
Your loving wife,
Emma
