P.A.C.E. Personal Achievement -- CelebratE!!!.
This isn't a personal achievement for me and my husband would be embarrassed to death if he knew I was saying anything about it. On Wednesday, October 6th, my husband Jim was sworn in as the new fire chief for Salem City! I wasn't there for the swearing in because Monica had an orchestra performance and Jim wanted me to be there for her. Her performance was wonderful, by the way. :) I guess this will be a long term achievement on my part and that is to support him 110% in this new assignment, however long it lasts. It won't be easy and it will take him away from our family even more than he all ready is, which I'm not liking all ready. It wasn't necessarily something that he wanted to do, but he chose to do it for the sake of the city and the fire department. I know he will be awesome because he cares about the people he works with and the people he serves.

What a huge accomplishment! He is such a great guy! And, though supporting may seem like nothing, it really makes it possible. We're sure proud of you guys!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, thanks SO much for posting!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That is so awesome! Congrats to Jim and also to Monica on her performance!
ReplyDeleteI truly hope you will realize how important and hard the "supporting" role is. It shouldn't be overlooked because sometimes its harder than the actual job!!
Congrats to your family!
Way to serve...both of you! That whole 20/80 principle came to mind... 20% of the people do 80% of the work. I've just been thinking how blessed I am because of all those 20%-ers out there. Way to be one! (two)
