So tonight I honor Jon by posting this picture of him standing on top of the world- okay, so it was at the top of some volcano in Maui, but close enough. I have been feeling very bad about myself the last few days cause I've been having some hard thoughts about my son-in-law. I felt like he needed to be doing more for my pregnant daughter and that his focus wasn't on her. And then I realized- IT"S TIME FOR HIS BOARDS!! The day has come that he has sacrificed for, studied for, dreamed and worried about for the last seven years- and it will all come down to the next three days!! Shame on me for not stopping to realize that in the midst of all my worries about the new baby, the wedding, and the office that I hadn't remembered how hard the next few days will be for him! So Lynn and I will being saying lots of prayers for him and all the great guys he's made friends with over the past four years as they take their Dental Boards. And Jon, even if Lynn would have been able to pick someone out for Mandy, it would have been you!! Love you lots, we know you'll do great, Dr. Fairbanks!!

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I AM DRAMATIC!!! I was extremely calm waiting for my test results. you two just like to make fun of me - but I am getting use to it. I know Jon will do fine and so will Mandy It is hard watching your married children's lives. I would do things differently but the important part is that I NEVER SAY ANYTHING. I think we know how important that is. Take care. I will be praying for you to make it through all this, but then again you do your best work when you are under the gun.
Aunt Susan- do not believe a word my mother says. She LOVES to put her two cents in about her children's relationships. And usually she blows every little problem way out of proportion! I'm sure you know all about the drama that is Debbie! Tell Jon good luck for us, I'm sure he will do great!
I can't believe all that you have going on at this time in your life! I'll keep Jon in my thoughts and prayers...I know what a critical time this is for him! There's a fine line that you walk as a mother-in-law and you seem to be walking it just fine! Hang in there and know we love you!
