May is going to be a busy month.

We're having a baby, (April 28th or sooner )by the way, so that will keep us just a little busy, but you can catch up on other things here and here.  Today we were informed that in addition to these great accomplishments Officer will be a recipient of NAPO's TOP COP award.  This means that we will be going to Washington DC in May and he will meet the President and...it's just incredible and I'm so proud.  We knew that he had been nominated, but we never expected anything to come of it because across the nation there are so many exceptional officers and only a small number are chosen for this award (I believe that they choose 10 incidents and award the officers involved in those incidents).  Some officers never receive a recognition like this in their entire career and in such a short time as an Officer he has shown such exceptional service, character, dedication to his department and our community.  I'm so grateful that he has this opportunity to be recognized for his service.
