One more step completed

Jeff spent most of the day yesterday taking his National Practical test which is one step closer to recieving his official Paramedic license. I'm happy to announce that he passed it all (12 stations) ont he 1st try. It's a huge relief. Now he has to finish his clinicals, he's need about 25 more leads. And another big test, which is the written test. He's working very hard for this and I'm so proud. Today, he and Shayne are headed to Scott AFB for the airshow. Blue Angels are there. I'll post pictures soon.

Finally....he's done

Graduation was last night. I cannot begin to tell you how proud I was sitting in that audience watching him walk across the stage to get his certificate. Wow!! He's done. He is almost an official Paramedic (after national testing). One speaker said they should be called EMCs Emergency Medical Caregivers, not T for Technician. They have an important job. 1st on the scene. He will see things and do thing none of us will ever want to, but he WANTS to. He is an awesome man who loves helping people. If anyone deserves to do this job, its Jeff!! Had a small celebration at DQ afterwards. Shayne and I are so proud. And of course, ice cream is always good!!

Hugging his teacher. Very awesome!!

There it is....the certificate of completion!! Look at that smile!!

This is the Tshirt quilt my sister, Marsha made for him. He was so happy to receive this. Thanks Marsha for making his night!!

Thanks so much for all the prayers that you have all lifted up for Jeff and for Shayne and I too. He's not completely done with his goal, but he's one step closer. Now, just a few more prayers for the testing in a couple weeks, please!!
