Rank List

Last Wednesday at 9pm EST Nathan had to enter his ROL--rank order list. He debated for a long time but everything kept pointing towards Wake Forest, so that is what we ranked number 1. Everyone said it would be dumb not to since they are a nationally ranked school in terms of medical research. We ranked here #2. That's all there are. Only 2 programs. Most people apply to 30. We got our #6 choice when we came here, so we'll probably not match at all, but it will be fun to see. If we don't he'll just start in on a research job. He's excited about both options. Actually, he's more excited to start his research career, but feels like he needs to do a fellowship to finish his schooling and specialize in what he wants--nephrology. So we'll see. Match Day is June 17.
Not much happenin until then. Just kickin back and enjoying summer. I'm getting tons of scrapbooking done and hardly leaving the house. It's wonderful.

Wow- Marcie- I had a lot of catching up to do- You are such a good Mom!! Look at how much you've taught your children and how sweet they are and all the fun things you're doing with them!! They look like they are having a wonderful childhood! Happy 30th Birthday-belated I know! Your cake turned out very pretty! I'm glad to see that turning 30 is still okay! :)
