Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment, and especially on their children, then the unlived lives of the parents.

iPhone in the pool 2015

Parenting milestone
Not a day for joy, but a day for transformation.

 

New iPhone 6 in the pool 2015 (Oct 2).

Tough love.

Things changed after that day.

Yesterday marked a full year since it happened.

It’s a non-event in our house today, but it did happen, and things did transform.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Need to be at Orlando Airport by 6:30am tomorrow. Six faculty and 54 ninth graders (out of approx 130) are heading to Washington DC for their annual school trip.

Give them roots.

Give them wings.

Interesting to ponder why well under half the students will not be traveling.

Replacement post today

The original post that went live at 12:05am this morning has been taken down.

Why?

It was deeply personal.

Maybe too personal.

The key insight today is that passion and compromise sometimes must find a way to coexist.
