Final Semester

I begin my final semester of law school on Tuesday. It's simply surreal. When I first began law school two and half years ago, I had just moved to Oklahoma, was dating Aaron, and still got to enjoy my Dad in this life. So many things have changed in such a relatively short amount of time.

This has been one of the most trying times in my life in many ways; it has also been some of the sweetest. I love my husband. I love being married. I love how close my family has grown. I enjoy the relatively relaxed schedule that school affords, at least the first month or two of the semester. I hate that we have been without my Dad for the past year and a half--it breaks my heart constantly. I detest finals. I consider myself lucky to still be alive after the miserable Oklahoma summers and terrifying tornadoes.

There is so much more, but it's either too hard to say, or seems far too inconsequential to relate. So I will leave you with a picture of my dear family from Thanksgiving.
