Perseverance, Determination, and Hard-Working

Webster describes perseverance, determination, and hard-working as the following:

Perseverance - continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition

Determination - firm or fixed intention to achieve a desired end

Hardworking - Industrious, Diligent 

These 3 words describe my sister as she worked incredibly hard in difficult circumstances to never give up on her goal of becoming a police officer. For 2 years, she poured her heart and sole into training to achieve this goal.  It was not an easy road, and so many would and did walk away, but not Amy, she rose to every challenge and followed the path she chose and we were all there to cheer her on and support her.  God truly blessed her with friends that helped walk alongside of her to cheer her on and push her onward.  Some would say that God had a different plan for her and she should quit, but through her perseverance she showed so many not to quit and how you can achieve a goal which is something I'm so thankful she showed my girls.  Sarah Anne is so very proud of her and has prayed and stressed over every PT test and checkpoint along this way.  The girls now have the perfect example of perseverance, determination, and hard-working in their Aunt Amy and is something the will hopefully follow after.  So here are the pictures from the graduation that we were so excited to celebrate!
