One down..two to go!

Preface: This in one of those braggy blogging posts
Today marks the last day of Mike's first year of residency.  He will no longer be considered an intern but a full on resident! (First year of residency is called intern year, even though it is part of their residency. ) I can't believe his first year is already over. It's hard to believe he only has two years left.  He has worked so hard this year and has excelled in every area. 

Here are just a couple of reviews Mike has received from physicians he has worked with this year:
Dr. Walker was one of the best interns I have worked with this year. He is very thorough, applies evidence-based medicine, and spends extra time with his patients. He was very enthusiastic to be on wards, despite this was a pull week for him and he was trying to study for boards. He is an excellent resident.

Dr. Walker is in the top percent of his class.

Love you Mikey! You've done an incredible job balancing the crazy schedule of a resident while being a wonderful, husband, gardener, soccer player, golfer, brother, brother-in law, son and  faithful church member. 

Bring on the next two years!

I can't believe you guys are almost done. You're at the "we can see the light at the end of the tunnel" place. You might need to apologize for braggy posts to friends, but not to us. You can brag to family. We're proud of you Mike and you too Laura for not being a whiney Drs. wife... I've known a few- haha.

Way to go Mike, and way to go Laura. It takes a strong wife to put a husband through medical school. I am so impressed with both of you!
