For Jimmy's heroic actions on June 7, 2011, he was presented with the New Carrollton Police Department's Life Saving Award at the city council meeting. It was well deserved recognition for Jimmy's selfless actions and I was beaming with pride and admiration of my husband. I decided to bring the kids and our dear friends Megan and Justin, since I knew it would mean a lot to Jimmy. (I now owe Megan and Justin babysitting money because it turns out that city council meetings are about as exciting as watching paint dry...) However, it was important to me that Ashton see the ceremony, so that he can start to build a dynamic picture of who his father is, especially after seeing Jimmy standing at the front of the room in his dress uniform. Plus, Ashton felt particularly important the rest of the evening as he was given the prestigious duty as "special present" keeper and protected it as if he were holding the crown jewels.
Congratulations, again, Jimmy. We are all so proud of you!
Congratulations to you Jimmy. We are proud of you. With those big muscles.
