Jordan, who is pursuing Criminal Justice with the goal of becoming a police officer and then maybe a detective, just came back from his first day at Weatherford College where his first class, "Introduction to Criminology was interesting with a tall teacher who sounded like Father Peter Gilquist and is the head of the whole Criminology department. He was pretty funny like when he said, 'if you don't have a book for this class, I suggest you go get one, the book store sells them for a very good price, only 10x what they're worth'." His next class, Intro to Sociology had a glitch because the teacher they had planned didn't work out so they got out early. That combined with the fact that he has a free hour between Soc. and History, made him able to come back home and get Ben and Jared for their first day.
I think it will be so cool to some day not too far off, take a picture of our three oldest sons wearing a police uniform, a cassock, and an air force uniform respectively. But as the Lord wills, and may He protect their paths.
Jordan is registering for college today! He's driving his own car, his own checkbook in hand (although it looks like Chick Fil A will end up giving him a scholarship which will cover the costs of this semester), with his impressive transcript to an orientation class he signed up for himself. He's growing up!
