Wifely Pride

I can't sleep and it's making me really mad since the babies have all been sound asleep for 3 hours now. I hate lost hours of sleep, and really hate thinking about how tired I'll be in the morning. Serves me right for taking a precious hour long nap today. I guess I'm not used to being so rested. Geeze. But I might as well use this time to tell you something cool.

KC is a good husband and dad. But you already know that because I've said it many times before. Do you know what else he is good at? Passing the P.E. exam (that stands for Professional Engineering for those who may not know). This test has been long awaited and is extremely important for his career path. It's been weighing over our heads for a couple years now, so we were glad he was at least starting the process. He was fully expecting to take it again, given that he took it right after the babies were born. Lots of distractions, a wife recovering from surgery, not much sleep, and not much time to study. When I was coming home from Utah, he told me that he had a surprise waiting for me when I got there. Little did I know the surprise would be this grand. This means big things for our family, and I am one proud wife. This really is a great accomplishment. I'm happy for him, I'm happy for me, and I'm excited to see where this might take us. We'd have a big party to celebrate if we had the energy/time/space/willingness to do so. I guess the big hug and kiss(es) I gave him when I found out will have to suffice. Good work, honey.

I might be tired now. Good night.

Congrats KC. If I was closer I would bring you a big bouquet of cookies, or brownies, or some sort of treat.

I HATE not being able to sleep when everyone is. I was pacing around the house the other night because of that. Ugh. Sorry.

But YAY for KC!!! Hooray! Great job.

Way to go KC! That is a big accomplishment, and I am sure you guys can all breathe a sigh of relief. It is nice to know the bread winner is able to keep up with the brood. :)
