Por Fin (Finally)

-Applied 3 years
-Took the DAT 3 times
-Interviewed at 6 schools
-Placed on 3 waiting lists
-Moved my family across the country
-Spent $10,000 on applications and fees
-Received countless prayers and fasts in my behalf
-Have seen a number of tender mercies
-Realized that we have been blessed with the most amazing friends and family who support and help us every step of the way

And what do I have to show for it....

Last night at 12:02 AM, I was accepted as a member of the class of 2015 at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry. It has still not set in, but figuratively, and to tell you the truth quite literally, a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Behind my wife, daughter, family, and friends, this is the greatest blessing that Heavenly Father has ever given me. I am so grateful and excited for this next stage of my life. Thank you all so much for your love, thoughts, prayers, fasts, and support. I really appreciate it. GO CARDINALS!
