The Jouney Has Begun!

School has finally started and also the reality of what is to come.  The first couple days in class over viewed the whole semester.  Which is helpful and also overwhelming; you get to find out all the many assignments and papers you will be completing in a short amount of time. 

Before the first day of teaching my Jogging Class, I had a nightmare that the students didn't like me and everyone got lost on our run.  Well, that came true. OK, only part of it came true.  With the wide variety of fitness levels and those new to the area, many did get lost.  Despite only running out 1 mile and then back, and despite my efforts running back and forth between groups to direct them to our destination, I even got lost navigating through campus, and then being on a hill added an extra challenge to an "easy run." 

Aside from my interesting first couple days of school, my husband is getting hands on experience meeting patients at the hospital and beginning the loads of studying. Tanner is a patient and kind person.  He already has all the qualities of a good and successful doctor.  I know Tanner will only further mature and develop into a great leader in health care.  He is my example of dedication and diligence.  Tanner knows that hard work pays off, and he will give it his all. 

Left on our list of things to come, is having children and becoming a real family.  This I am most excited about.  Yet, I am afraid there is no news to report at this time. 

Thanks for reading :)
