Sorry, I must brag a little!
« Reply #-1 on: November 21, 2013, 10:59:25 PM »
Twelve weeks ago my oldest son set out for the police academy to become a peace officer and today he graduated!!!!

The last few weeks have been tough but he made it and is now a sworn officer of the law.

There were 102 grads in this class (they started with 109) and Kimmie and I are as proud as any parent can be.  With the way things are going in this great country atleast I can say my son is on the right side of the fight for freedom!!

Thanks for letting me brag a little ;)

Tommy-Kimmie,  It's obvious that the acorn didn't fall far from the tree.  Strong oaks grow only from other strong oaks.  Obviously he is a strong oak.  Dee

Tommie/Kimmie - you have a lot to be proud of and the right to brag. I have a feeling things just got a little safer around here.

Congratulations to you, Kimmie and your son.  I hope he enjoys his job as much as our son enjoys his job.  Has he started sitting with his back to the wall in restaurants so he watch who is coming in?  It's a "cop thing".
