Welcome back Jordicus!

This was a momentous week for Jordan. He finished his last assignment, wrote his last paper, and attended his last class. He is no longer a young Padawan... he has officially become a Jedi Master (of Mental Health.) He spent the last 3.5 years going to school at night, working full time, completing an internship, and doing his homework in his "spare" time. This means that he left the house at 7am and returned at 10:30pm every day except Saturday.... when he worked from 6:30-2. Saturday nights were sacred at our house, as were Sundays. I can't believe how great it is to have him around! We celebrated by taking the kids to Brick Oven, where they marveled at the food, the atmosphere, and especially the frosty rootbeer mug. We had the best booth location, away from everyone else where we could be as loud as we wanted and Indigo could slime us to her heart's desire. Jor bought everyone gourmet suckers and we had a blast. (except that I forgot my camera!) We realized that after living in survival mode for the last 3 years we now really appreciate the time we get to spend together. AND, I married a supercool dude. Jor, welcome back, and congratulations. We're so proud of you!
