I always thought you were an excellent teacher. I now know you are a teacher of teachers and everyone who understands the value of a great education. I look forward to the day when all parents, educators and our curious children realize this dream. Thank you!

Wonderful!!!! Cadence in glasses – suspected it was inevitable but kind of makes me sad – even though she looks so cute!

Very cute! I love the new glasses. I think you have a lot more snow than we have in Montreal. Some beautiful pics.

An important and well stated message. I think some other important points are (a) to lead by example – it is easier for our daughters to be strong and independent if they have a model for the behavior – and (b) not to forget a father’s role in this development – how a father treats and allows himself to be treated by the women in his life greatly impacts the type of women his daughters become.

I find the media messages our young daughters receive to be so disappointing. I strive to do these things, but it’s not always apparent to me that my child is hearing what I’m saying. I just try to trust that she is, and know that in the end my example will matter more than a cartoon princess. At least, I really hope so.

I would frame that one – so she can read it regularly to remind her of that moment. She will have weak moments and that is often when we make those stupid decisions that detour our lives.
