Today is the day! Essie pins on her third stripe we are now both SrA Spargur and are testing for staff in May. Bring on the extra $80. She has to be the hardest working, smartest, persevering woman alive (she lives with me.) We are coming up on 2 years and I could not be happier. It can be hard but we really are lucky to have all that we have and are able to do what we do and having good jobs and careers is one more thing to be thankful for.

The clock is tickin' and it is almost time to get out of here. I cannot wait to see my beautiful wife, and dog.
