An update on Ikie-boy and Mike

I took Isaac into the doctor this morning and one ear is clear and the other is not. The doctor said he has had 7 earaches in 10 months, two of which were double ear infections! I asked about tubes and she referred us to an ENT. I am interested to see what will happen. She also gave us some more Singular in the hopes that it would help with all the congestion he gets, therefore reducing earaches. She said he is also getting three teeth! My poor little boy.

Mike took a language proficiency test this morning. The test is to see how well you can learn languages. He has been learning Chinese for two years now on his own. Recently he has had a feeling that he should try for the Olmstead scholarship (I'm not sure if that's how you spell it). If he gets the scholarship we will be sent to Monterrey California where he will learn Chinese (the language he would prefer to learn) or Norwegian (he already knows). Then they will move him to China or Norway, with his family of course! Crazy. He said the chances are very slim because he is going up against a lot of other people and I think only 10 people in the whole Air Force are accepted, or something crazy like that. He's going to try anyway. He applies within the next month and won't find out until around April. He also applied to AFIT in Ohio for his graduate program and will find out about that in October.
