The BAR
The time has finally come for Ladd to take the California State Bar Exam. This is just a little quiz that tests all he learned in the past three years. He will spend six hours Tuesday writing essays, six hours Wednesday answering multiple choice questions, and then another six hours on Thursday writing essays. My brain just hurts thinking about it! The CA bar is certainly one of the hardest in the nation. It is one whole day longer than most other states. Ladd has studied more than ten hours a day for the last two months and his percent of passing is still only 60%. You either pass or fail, there is no in between. And, if you want to practice law in CA, you have to pass it! The worst part of this test is that we will not find out if Ladd passed until the end of November! So, we will basically be in a state of limbo between now and Thanksgiving!Ladd has worked so hard and I know he will do great! I am very proud of him and very glad that this week is finally here and will soon be over!
Pictures!
On a more cheerful note, my talented friend Stacey Bishop came over the other day to take some pictures of our munchkins. She did an excellent job! Thanks Stacey! Here are a few of the pics:

Well, I know that Ladd is going to do great. I can't believe this week is finally here. He certainly has been dilligent in his preparation and he is a smart guy.
The pictures are great. Stacy is very talented and Tanner and Hunter are very handsome subjects.
Hang in there Melissa. With all that studying he is sure to pass. And won't you both be relieved after this week! Then just waiting for the results is the next bummer - seriously why can't they just scantron the whole exam?
Good luck with everything!
