Today was Emily's first day of Jr CPA 2017/1.
I can't begin to tell you how excited she was once she got into the truck. I asked her to tell me about her day, she said, "Well, Where do I start, it was such a big day!"
She got to learn about the Mounted Unit and meet the seven horses, eat Little Caesars pizza, see the new training facility/the newest academy class at work/talk about taser and pepper spray, challenged to use "Yes, Ma'am, Yes, Sir" through the week, and ..."I got to meet the Chief Mimi!! And I took my picture with him!"
"Have you ever taken a picture with the Chief before, Mimi?"
"Well, I may have but I've not done a selfie with him."
"I'd say not!! Mimi, that's just wrong!" 🙈
She talked about the friends she made. She even talked about a boy that attended that never said anything to anyone. And how she's gonna try to help him feel more comfortable tomorrow. 💙
She found out from me that I had a video of my Academy class when we were talking about pepper spray. When we walked in the door she just had to watch it. When it first came on she paused it, ran and got a pen and paper and wrote down 12/2007. She said it was homework to find out what class I was in.
And I can go on and on with the talk.
So grateful to Ofc. Towery and Sgt. Berry
and the Lex Police Explorers for the awesome job
of working with Emily.
of working with Emily.
