Call us CRAZY!!!

Ok, we may have some hate mail coming our way, or at least idiot mail. I can't believe I am going to say this, let alone we are going to do this, but here goes. Will LOVES to teach. More importantly he loves to teach school, and even more finite he loves to teach SCIENCE!! So...NO don't worry he isn't quitting school, or changing his major. We are ADDING another year to this LONG FREAKING JOURNEY!!! Oh my word. Just shoot me in the head. I can't believe I am going to go through another year of school after already doing 6. That's ok though. I love Will and we are a family, and so we have to stick together. He has decided that he wants to teach at some point in his career, and to do that you MUST MUST MUST have done an Education Residency. SO that is what we are going to do. I want him to be happy, and love what he does when he is away from the family. He will still graduate as a Pharmacist and take the NAPLEX in May of 2010, but then we will continue one more year beyond that while he teaches for a year somewhere. We don't know where yet, but we will be putting in the applications here in the very near future. So, call us crazy, idiots, or smart, but whatever it is, we are doing it as a family. He will be getting a living stipend of half salary of a pharmacist while doing this, and then he would be able to work part time if he decided to on the weekends as a Staff Pharmacist somewhere, and so we will have a little income, just not the FULL income till the year 2011. But hey he is good at it, and it is important to love what you do. SO here we go full steam ahead for another year of school per say!! Wish him luck!!

You can never go wrong with more education. It's the best kind of investment! Besides, what's one more year in the whole scheme of things? It will go by so fast.
