Subject: On another note...

I've been meaning to post this for some time so I'll do it now while I'm here...

I know that ya'll have offspring that make you proud, but I'm not above boasting the accomplishments of mine, so here goes...

Number one daughter - Sabrena - graduated in May with her Masters in Athletic Training and has secured a position with the University of Mass in Dartmouth, she's already settled in in an apartment in New Bedford, Ma...it didn't take them long to interview her and then offer her a job after she graduated.

Number two daughter - Veronica - suprised us all (even herself) by taking an EMT course and not only finishing it, but passing her National Certification test first time through...so now dad is pressing her to consider this to be a good time for a career change and not just use it when called as a volunteer fire fighter, we'll see and I'll let ya' know when I win.

Time to get ready for my babysitting gig at the Coast Guard Academy, talk at ya's tomorrow,

Billy Bob

Definately Congratulations. My Daughter passed State, but had problems with the National. Now she is afraid to take it again. The best thing we leave behind are our children, and their accomplishments. Thats why you were put on this earth. It is the one job you don't want to mess up.
