Attitude is Everything

Well the first week of medical school is done!!! Surprisingly, it wasn't as bad as everyone said it would be, granted it was only the first week. However, I am so grateful for this experience that we are going through. A very important lesson I have quickly learned is that "Attitude is everything!!!" "Whether we think we can, or we think we can't we are right." How true I realize this saying is. If I think that being alone so much is hard it is, but when I think about all the good Bryce is accomplishing and that it isn't that hard then it isn't.

I love having my husband in medical school. Yes, I know it is going to be hard, but I have learned some very valuable lessons already and I am sure there are more to come. I have also learned to cherish every moment, and make every minute together count. Last night was our date night, so we went to red box and rented a movie, but when we got home Bryce wanted to play cards, so we put the movie aside and enjoyed just being together. It was a wonderful night, that didn't cost anything but time!!!

Don't get me wrong, I miss my husband like crazy when he is gone, but I have also had to adjust my perspective. I have had to realize that I am not the only important thing in his life and instead of complaining to him about being gone all the time, I need to make his life easier by being excited and enjoying the time he is here.

I am so proud of my husband and all that he is doing and accomplishing! I am grateful for this growing and learning experience we are able to have together.
