pretty freaking awesome!

I know I have said this a million times but my husband is pretty awesome!  At the beginning of the year Terence had put something in his goals for work about getting approved to do a specific kind of training.  This training is above what his normal responsibilities are and something that no one else in his role has done before.  Not only that but he is the one who sought it out as a growth opportunity.    T worked extremely hard to get it right, he practiced for hours on his own and even ran through the training with me a couple of times to refine it.  When the day of the actual test came it was Terence doing the training with three directors and two other very important people.  When he was done he told me that he thought he had done OK but was not sure.  He figured he had passed the test but did not hear anything else back for about a week.  Finally he had a one on one with his manager and was not only told he had passed but that it was one of the best that they had ever heard!  They were so impressed with him and his presentation skills!  He got absolutely rave reviews!  The icing on the cake was that Terence was called out in the weekly newsletter that goes to all of his company for the great job he did.  His boss said:

Shout out to Corporate Account Specialist Terence Keenan: “Terence engaged the Manager of Learning and Development on his own and asked for TM training certification so he could take on more and continue to work and excel at the next level. What followed was one of the best product demos I've ever witnessed and a near perfect judges score. Truly a fantastic job.”

How cool is that?  I should also mention that both my Mom and my Aunt Pam were also called out in this weeks news letter!  Way to go Terence and the VanderHoeven machine!  You all rock!
