Jose has been busy this summer with summer school and research, this is him in the lab working on one of his antioxidant projects...doesn't he look good in a white coat...LOL!!This summer Jose has had the opportunity to work in a cancer research lab on campus, he feels so privilege to be working in this lab with a great professor and amazing labbies. The research he is doing compensates for having to take summer school classes...physics...ahhhhhh!!! He will be taking Princeton Review in January/February so he could take the MCAT in May. We have been so anxious to get to this point but at the same time it has been kind of nerve wrecking to think, in about a year we will know what medical school he got into and where our next move will be. Crazy!! Life goes by not by time but by series of events. I can pretty much look back at my life and I can go back to my early childhood tracing series of events! I love that!
I am so proud of my husband, he is intelligent, hardworking, generous, talented, caring and thoughtful! This path he chose is not an easy one, I admire him because he doesn't look for easy. Its funny, in choosing pre-med you have to remain confident that you will some day reach your goal of being a physician but you also have to remain open to never getting there. There are so many smart, talented individuals graduating college every year and applying to medical school. The competition is fierce, the tuition is expensive and the time you dedicate can threaten family relationships...why in the heck would you do it!?! Service...all for service. Not that I would compare anyone to the Savior I mean He was perfect but my husband tries to exemplify the Savior in his choices and I am so proud of him. He wants to serve, how could I not support him, how could I not stand by him. It fills my heart to know how hard he works, he doesn't complain or grip. (maybe some whining when it comes to anything chemistry, physics...LOL!) Sometimes I think...10 more years of school...oh my...I better really like student life. But Jose has given me more than anyone I have ever met, I'm happy! I have a husband who treats me like a queen and a daughter who is perfect and I have the knowledge that the family we form will be a forever family. He loves our Savior and because of that I know no matter what happens, no matter what path we stay on he will always be happy, we will always be happy. My husband is such a great example to me! I know that the trials we face now are preparing us to handle life later with a greater handle on problems. I love you Jose! I'm grateful for you! I am so happy to spend eternity with you!
BTW- I could get all mushy cause he never reads our blog...he's pre-med remember, if its not science he ain't going there! He would be soooo embarrassed! Ah...what's blogging for if not to proclaim to the world...Your Opinion!!
