One step up from homelessness, but it’s still the HQ

cousins on the front porch
We only sat around the house the final 30 minutes.

 

The only part of our home i showed Randy was the office, so he could picture where i sit during most of our calls.

Why that matters is lost on me.

Reaping what is sown.

Irrefutable?

It certainly seems so.

Am i missing something?

2016 Florida Class 3A basketball Final
Less than 11 seconds left, the opponents plan unraveled.

 

One of the most exciting Basketball games i’ve ever been in the bleachers for.

The lead went back and forth repeatedly.

And at one point near the end, it looked like the other team would run away with the win.

For the 15-year old freshman, he witnessed an unprecedented display of school spirit and was there in person to be part of a first ever Boys High School State Championship win.

It was the fifth game we’ve attended, and there were more fans at last night’s final than the other four games combined.

It was moving.

The value of enterprise and deep, emotional bonds

A photo story board into last night’s Middle School graduation. Important to note that these young men have had an extraordinarily intimate classroom experience, only 11 full-time students, with two high schoolers and former Owl room graduates as consistent occupants.

David’s Father passed away suddenly and High School became a challenge. Ms. Yelenosky opened the Owl room to him the whole year. David’s Mom works at the school and his two younger siblings also attend.

Daniel is going to be a Junior at Lake Highland Prep. Ms. Y hires him to spend the last three hours of the day as a classroom handy-man. His positive influence as a real-world high schooler helps the middle schoolers get a glimpse into their future. Priceless.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The school, the teachers, the Montessori karma, the parental leadership…the perfect storm to develop young men into something remarkable.

Ever have a moment where 50 years have gone by and it feels like the blink of an eye?

Each human being is so insignificant and the years fly by like the wind, invisible and barely noticeable most of the time.
