My son, Derek, has been accepted into the Peace Corps! :-) He has his degree in English, and will be tutoring students in English class..... in Jamaica!! He reports next summer, on a 27-month tour.
Here's a special mention to two of my friends who have an interest in the matter:
Thank you, Therese, for being supportive of the idea.
Thank you, Nikki, for indirectly coming up with the idea [you mentioned Job Corps with reference to Kevin, and that got me to thinking about Peace Corps, and mentioned it to Derek], and for being supportive of Drek when he was here.
Gee, I might even have to go visit young Master Derek down in Jamaica!
Derek is back home from Peace Corps. He did well and was so attached to his kids that he requested (and received) a 4th year. Well done, Derek!
