Major trip...3 1/2 years ago
Anneke is now 5 weeks old. When Caleb was that age, we were already half a week into a 2-week trip across the country so my wife could apply to various residency programs. We crammed 6 interviews in 3 states (plus Thanksgiving with her family) into those two weeks. Caleb did fine with the driving--he pretty much slept the whole time...which meant nights were his time to be awake. So her interviews were often on very little sleep. It seems amazing now that she got into a program that regularly has 15-20 applicants for every position. And it seems even crazier to imagine trying to do anything like that now with a second child.
That's today's trip down memory lane. Next post should be more about my serial fiction project.
