st charles police....

" They are mailing me a conditional offer of employment that says if I pass the background, psych test, and medical that I have the job and the academy is in April. "

Thank you Grammie...

for talking to the big man upstairs for us!

UPDATE: 2.23.11 
Jake had his psych test yesterday in the city..got the call this morning from the police department saying he PASSED and they are going through with him, he has to fill out a waiver tomorrow for them saying they can finish his background..so im guessing his LAST and FINAL test, the medical, will be scheduled for some time early next week!  So after that its onto PTI (police training institute) down at ISU in Champaign for 12 weeks (April 10th to June 30th)!


again..thank you grammie!


we still dont believe its 'real' since weve been waiting for this moment forever..excited but in shock..




strongly agree or strongly disagree:
i have literally jumped for joy


that's a question that was asked on the test..


what would you have said!?

gramma

As the moon kindles the night
As the wind kindles the fire
As the rain fills every ocean
And the Sun the Earth
Your heart will kindle my heart

Take my heart
Take my heart

Kindle it with your heart
And my heart cannot be
Kindled without you
With your heart kindle my heart

 

 

this is what pure hell looks like..
