Congrats Ben!



We are very proud of Ben... he was offered the Chief Resident position at Baptist, and he took it! His "chief year" will be the year after he finishes residency (he'll start it in a year and a half). They ask 1 or 2 people to do this each year, and they oversee the residents, do scheduling, take care of some of the administrative stuff, get to teach, etc. All of which Ben will be GREAT at! :) The part I am excited about, is he will have a VERY easy schedule, and will be home with us a lot more - yea! It also means we will have 1 more year in Birmingham - which we are really excited about since we are really just now feeling settled in our house and church, making new friends, etc. We'll see what the Lord has in store after that...

Alright Bomp! I'm proud out of you bro. You'll be good at teaching folks what they need to know; that is, what is already in your brain.
