Welcome Gaudi and Lil’ Gaudi!

COT: My daughter and son-in-law purchased a row home in DC, which included several fruit trees in the backyard. As we were clearing the backyard, we discovered a hidden cement sidewalk along the side of the yard, directly underneath the fruit trees (in raised boxes)! Because the roots had nowhere to go, the trees suffered and had to be pulled up.
Focus on your roots, focus on what’s most important in your life, focus on the eternal and weighty things, and everything else will be healthy and in order.

COT
YHC is too quick to move on when something good happens and not pause to appreciate it. Fortunately my M sees things more clearly. She had to cajole and shame YHC to take some time to celebrate a small success of our daughter two days ago. It took some work, but it was well worth it. Don’t let opportunities to celebrate others (especially your kids) and pass you by.

COT: Leadership shows itself in many forms. You can step up and lead an event; you can lead by example; and you can develop leaders in others. Leadership is as much about action as it is a state of mind. Live the Latin saying “Non-Ducor. Duco.”, which means “I am not led. I lead.”
