Jacob has a super busy schedule but what more could you expect he is in medical school for heaven sakes! His day starts about 6:30am he gets up and gets ready for school and studies for about a half hour before he takes off for the day the bus picks him up at 7:30 and he is in school from 8 until noon and then they have a break for lunch and he goes back to class from 1- 3, typically he will stay at the library and study for a few hours and gets home around 5 or so but occasionally he will come home right after his afternoon classes and study from home. Quiz and Exam weeks are a different story he still leaves at 7:30am but we usually won't see him until 9:00 pm or sometimes a little later. these weeks he comes home very tired but of course the kids attack him when he comes through the door!
Weekends are no different he spends most of the weekend studying except for Sundays he always makes time for family on Sundays, we usually use that time to talk to our families back home and get the 411 of what's going on there, we actually really look forward to Sundays and with technology we get to feel like we are there with them in a way!
I have gotten used to being on my own after all our whole married life has consisted of going to school, having him around the last year and a half has been very nice and we have been very spoiled, Kohl is struggling the most with his absence but he has gotten to the point now where in the mornings he will say to me "dad is at school huh?" and I reply "yep" and he says "he has to go there everyday to get smarter huh mom?" and I just giggle and say "yep your right pal!"
Katelyn is just too little to really get it, all she cares about is that he picks her up when he walks in the door and gives her a squeeze and then she goes off on her merry way, she is such a snuggler! I love it!
We are settling in to the being back in school routine a lot better than I thought we would and a lot faster than I thought we would! I would not trade any of it for the world. I can't believe how much we have already grown from this experience!
Every day is an adventure, and by not being together all of the time makes our night time story telling time an even better time! We always have a story for Jacob at night!
After reading through this post I can see why I only write about the kiddos and my adventures.....Jacob is boring...LOL I am just kidding! He works so hard and gives everything he has to us and his studies, I love him more than anything and I am so grateful that I get to go through this the whole crazy experience with him! I love our crazy unpredictable life!
