Tonight though, I have even more than usual to celebrate. Tomorrow morning, at the merry hour of 3am, my Calib will start his first day of the police academy and in short six months, settle in to his dream job. If I have learned anything in the almost seven years that I have known this man, it is lessons after lessons about motivation, determination, and passion. For longer than I have been in his life, Calib has held another love and passion for law enforcement. There are pictures of five year old Calib - grinning ear to ear in the passenger seat of a cruiser. How many people see their childhood dream actually come true? Calib is doing just that. Every job, every hard earned drop of blood and sweat, every uniform, every mission/deployment/training, and every moment have led to this experience.
I am so excited for what you will learn, Calib. I am thrilled to see you come this far after years of hard work and I cannot put into words how much pride, confidence and love I hold in you. Thank you for reminding us all that hard work does pay off and dreams do come true.
This would is a better place for having you in it, Calib. I love you.
