Bring and Brag

Blogs are sometimes known for "bragging" about how great your life is...well... today we are taking a dip in the vanity pool for showoffs!

Boy do we have great news! When we decided to go to law school, we were worried about how we were going to pay for everything. We have done everything we can to scrimp and save, but we have been unable to pay for school without taking out loans. Notwithstanding, we have been blessed by our Heavenly Father to have the necessities to maintain a happy family. Today, Heavenly Father blessed us yet again. At the beginning of the year, Paul applied for a scholarship through the National Center for Remote Sensing, Air and Space Law. He had to submit an application, resume, transcripts, letters of recommendation and a writing proposal on a subject that dealt with aerospace law. This afternoon Paul was informed through the law school that he has received a full tuition scholarship for next year based on his proposal. He submitted a proposal on legal difficulties presented by insuring commercial space activity. During his second year, Paul will work with The Journal of Space Law in writing a paper on the subject. Hooray for Paul.
