Four Lettered Word

Remember this day back in July? Doug received a phone call from his friend this afternoon informing him he just got his board scores in the mail. He automatically walked out of the house. I was a bit puzzled until he said I am walking to the mailbox. I seriously got ill all of a sudden. My stomach had instant butterflies and my heart felt like it was pounding outside of my chest. As he walked back into the house, I said, "well........" (four letters can mean VERY different words Pass or Fail. I was beyond relieved when the reply was an excited:



I am SO glad this milestone is behind us, now we won't have to worry about another exam at least for 2 years! I am so proud of you honey!! Way to go!
