(Okay, STOP!)

Did you guess "c"? You're absolutely right! He thought he did a good job at the interview last week, and it looks like he was right! YAY!

(I threw "a" and "b" in there just to dream a little bit… Maybe one day!)

But, believe me, "c" is awesome and we're tossing our hats in the air!!

Congratulations, Daniel!!

(Two down, one to go…)

Full disclosure: this photo is from New Year's Eve. We haven't actually thrown a party in honor of Daniel's new job… But we should, shouldn't we?? Whoo-hoo!!!

    It's only fair, because we certainly feel guilty when they make wrong choices, don't we?
