I just looked up the reason why university degrees are "Bachelor" degrees. It's too long to explain so you'll have to look it up yourself. Interesting, though! But who cares because Perris is DONESKY at BYU. My sweet mother came up to help celebrate and represent the family, thank you Momma. This is exciting business. We are waiting to hear from the University of Utah about a 1 year Master degree (after which Perris would like to request all to greet him as "Master Perris." You can imagine how I feel about that), which would start in the fall. Life is moving forward. School life, I mean. I feel like I've been pretty patient (as in not feeling too rushed as P continued through schooling our entire married life so far), considering I got my degree 6 years ago. It's just all a different process for everyone!
This shows all the graduates coming in and filling up. 6,000 of them!
I was wondering the average number of graduates per university each year? Anyone know? Seems like 6,000 is a lot, but I have no idea.
Wadester is approaching his 1 year birthday. It's pretty exciting! He is so fun. We are down to nursing 3 times a day, and really the morning feed is the only one that lasts more than 2 seconds. So weird. It took us forever to get nursing down, and now we're almost done! The latest thing he's started is holding hands and walking. He loves it and only started to let us do it a week ago. Today he was RUNNING toward Perris with me. Gotta get a video of that one!
I am helping Maddy finish the last preps for her wedding on May 11th. She is staying with us until then. She may have been regretting that decision this morning at 7am when the 3 of us came out to feed Wade breakfast, bathe, etc. Sorry about that, we have a real, real small house! I am excited for this spring weather to get more active and a bit more in shape.
In closing I leave you with a nice tale. One evening while Mom was here we were perusing the 4 TV channels that we have, and stopped on Friends. Joey and Chandler are having a conversation where Joey is asking why it's such a big deal that he sometimes use Chandler's toothbrush. Chandler is freaking out, and Joey says "well I don't understand why that's bad, we share the same bar of soap!" And Chandler says, "Well....it's soap." Joey: "Yeah, but if you think about the last thing I wash in the shower and the first thing you wash..."
We are all giggling at this, and I realize: we use bar soap in the shower. Immediately I ask Perris his method of using a bar of soap. Let's just say we had to make some changes. Thank you Friends for the surprising counsel! Hahaha!
