vet tech school

Hi Mom,

Today, Kallie and I trekked out to Tinley Park to visit the Vet Tech Institute at Fox College. Kallie and I got a grand tour and she got the schpeel about the admissions process. She looked really happy when we left and I asked her if she thinks she can do this and she said yes. I am so proud that she is ready to move on and find something that she loves and is good at. I truly believe that she has a gift with animals and I think that she is beginning to realize it too. Unfortunately, when she got home and showed dad the stuff he made a big deal about how much it costs (less than AU, which he wanted her to go back to). I think I might call him tomorrow and encourage him to support her because she needs everyone behind her right now. I feel so bad sometimes, like I failed her because she has these insecurities when she shouldn't.

Chris also went to go meet Norah today and was supposed to call me when he met her, instead he called when he was in the car and said We Have A Dog! Which I am happy about, and he was so very nice by pointing out my excellent internet find. But, I wish I was there. Getting a puppy was always something that I imagined that we would do together. It makes me sad that he is experiencing it without me. Which just adds to the overall sadness that I feel right now with everything that is going on at work.

Love you, night.
