First a Pearl, then Three Rubies!!: Jacob

Class of 2008

Today I am thankful that I get to be the Aunt to this amazing Graduate! Tonight Jake says goodbye to his high school class, and hello to a brilliant future. He is a focused, intelligent, wise beyond his years, loving young man who we are so proud of. His resume will impress any employer even before he starts his goal to graduate from college with a double major in Entrepreneurship and International Business. He will be attending Indiana University in the fall! Due to his outstanding academic achievements, he has already been accepted to IU's Business School!

Here are just a few of Jake's accomplishments for this Aunt to boast about today:

Awarded Mr. Future Business Leader - State of KY
Awarded a $20,000 Scholarship from The Toyota Company
Channel 9 (Fox News) Student of the Week
National Debate Finalist
Minds on Fire Award
Largest 3rd Party Fundraiser Organizer - Cutting out Alzheimers
Florence Rotary Club Scholarship Recipient
Kentucky Farm Bureau Scholarship Recipient
Captain of Debate Team
Future Business Leaders of America President

Jake's long term goal is to own his own successful global business in the sports marketing and representation field. I have absolutely no doubt that he will. It will be perfect timing too. Ruby will be in school by this time, and I will be ready to go back to work. Perhaps, I can get a job with my nephew!!

Congratulations Jake on finishing high school strong! We are so proud of your accomplishments. But, mostly we are proud of you for the person that you are! We wish you nothing but the very best as you move forward into this exciting time in your life! We can't wait to see the plans God has for you!

We love you!

Aunt Di & Uncle Jeff

Thankful Thursday!
