We've been trying to get back into the school groove and it has been difficult to do that after having such an awesome break. Tom is really enjoying his classes and excited about learning. I'm not sure if any of you know this, but on May 7th Tom will be beginning his first clinical rotation. Each student gets to pick the top 10 places they'd like to go and then the school decides which facility would best strengthen your education. Of course i'm not looking forward to this since he can get sent to any of the 10 places and not all of them are very close. So, I may be spending 5 weeks by myself....I guess we'll see. This first rotational is only 5 weeks. Rotation #2 is 6 weeks, Rotation #3-5 are all 9 weeks long. I've been dreading this part...even before we moved. But I'm not flipping out. When it comes, we'll deal with it.
Thanks for checking out what's going on with us. We surely enjoy reading the comments and keeping in touch with everyone.

Wow, he's starting clinicals already? Is there any chance you can tag along with him? Or wouldn't that be feasible? I'm sure God will work things out in the best possible way! Maybe you could have a 5 week vacation somewhere! :) If any of his spots are in Ohio, you're welcome to hang out with us.
alicia--yeah, clinicals are coming up soon. He turns in his 10 top places on monday and then we find out soon after that. The clinical places have to know 3 months in advance. Basically, tom has to find his own housing, food etc. Some of the facilities will help you out with a list of possible housing. I think one even had free housing with it. And with me working now too, I'm not sure that I could just take off 5 weeks. Hey thanks for the Ohio offer. If he ends up down there some time we'll make sure to get together with you guys.
