7th grade girl's 100 meter trials

I'm fine with an independent commission to study the Capitol riot. If they do the same thing for all the riots that impacted federal buildings this year.

32 years ago. It was the day before we were married. Best. Decision. Ever. She ages well.....

Lunch today. It was delicious. The company I was with was excellent and well.

The beginning of our 32 anniversary celebration. Love this woman!!!

Hanging with 3 of the many women in my life. Makes for a fun, but expensive, morning. #givethanks

I'm over the moon (idiom) excited about having students back in the building. I'll wear a mask, full body suit, or whatever is needed to have kiddos back where they need to be. I've missed them and their junior high craziness. Let's go!!!!

I worry about our students as they watch how nasty and mean "adults" are to each other right now. What are they learning? What examples are being set? I have a crazy theory that kindness doesn't have a downside. Crazy?

I hope I am a better person now than I was 5, 10, and 20 years ago. It is a scary proposal to have our past judged by our future. A litmus test doomed for failure. I hope that everyone can be allowed to change who they are, what they believe, and how they act.

Living under the mindset that the only way we can lift others up is by tearing ourselves down is erroneous. You lift others up only from a place of positivity! Be someone’s champion:)

Our tough love was manifest in having our children be truthful to themselves, not making up excuses that would alleviate short term pain in exchange for long term pain.

At Alpine Days. Tons of Junior high athletes. Beautiful day. I have a great job.

My goal after this conference weekend. Love greater, serve better. I'm excited.

Celebrating 30 years with my best friend. A testament to her strength and patience. Man, I love this woman

Talking to sister O'Very on her mission in Canada for Christmas. #bestgiftever #lovetechnology
