Leah & Clayton

'I'm a Survivor'

I have decided the song from Destiny's Child - 'I'm a Survivor" is my theme song for Medical school. When our families ask us how we are doing, Paul and I look at each other and chuckle and say, "We are surviving!" Medical school is crazy! I have no idea how Paul does it all- school,family, etc. I am so proud of him; last semester he honored in THREE classes! GO PAUL!! Leah is well, lets just say a 3 year old! Leah is sweet. She is always wanting to help, whither its helping me, Paul or Clay. Then the next minute she is stomping her feet and throwing a tantrum! I have to keep telling myself, Patience! Leah is now in Primary- CRAZY! I feel so old that I have a child in Primary. but then I feel so young because I remember being in Sunbeams. Clayton is a sweet, but ALL boy! If he gets in trouble he starts crying or when you tell him 'No' he looks at you in a very sad face. His favorites toys are remotes, tractors, balloons and any type of a ball(football, basketball and soccer). The past two days have been so nice. The past month and half its so been so depressing, fog and rain/cloudy. But, the past two days have been heaven. We have been going to the park(there is an awesome playground at an elementary school across the street) and both times there has been boys playing either football or basketball and he goes straight to the boys to "play". As for myself, I am doing pretty good actually, now that it is sunny. A group of some of my friends have been going to the gym every morning and it has been a blessing! There are 5 of us and one of my friends, Mckenna is a trainer and she comes with us 3x's a week to help us. I am so grateful for all the friendships that I have made here in Yakima. I really I have no idea what I would do without all of my friends, it truly has made med school A LOT easier. We all know how hard med school is and that our husbands are gone a lot so we just stick together!
