Bar Results Are In!

I have to take a moment here and brag about my wonderful husband. We received some wonderful news…HE PASSED THE BAR EXAM!!! Back in July, along with the rest of the aspiring attorneys in the country, Husband sat for the dreaded Bar exam. The hours spent studying for this enormous exam paid off. According to the piece of paper we received in the mail, Husband is an official attorney!

Unfortunately Husband wasn’t the first to find out the terrific news. The list of who passed just so happened to be released as Husband was flying across the country. It was a rather nerve racking day. Husband heard from a good source (thanks DW!) that the results were going to be posted a day early. For reasons I am sure Husband will expound upon later, he had to fly across the country for a job interview (that is a really great story and another reason I am proud of Husband, but I will let him tell you about it at another time). Since Husband could not keep checking the Board of Law Examiners website I spent the day hitting refresh and anxiously waiting for the results. Apparently everyone else who sat for the bar was doing the same thing as the website counter kept jumping 40 hits with each refresh. At approximately 4:45 pm the list was posted and after a quick glance I saw Husband’s name. I think I actually squealed out loud (I am sure my coworkers think I am crazy). I couldn’t wait for Husband’s plane to land so I could tell him the good news.

As soon as the wheels came to a slow crawl, Husband and I were on the phone with one another rejoicing in the good news. I didn’t know it was possible to be even prouder of Husband. He is constantly amazing me with all that he does.

I also want to say CONGRATULATIONS to all of our friends who also passed. Congrats DW and W!!!
