Florida - April 2018

Age 5, we traveled to Florida to visit Papa.   We met your cousins there and had a lovely trip.  You loved swimming in the pool - tossing the rings, jumping off the sides, going in at night under the moon (thanks to your ever-loving Grammy!).     You made yourself at home at Papa's place and loved spending quality time with the girls.   We did an Easter egg hunt on the shuffleboard court, some outdoor dining and all around nice and relaxing trip to the sunshine state.   Grammy and Papa love you so much their hearts nearly explode.

10 Ideas from Einstein

Kicking off spring with some motivation. 

1. Follow your curiosity - "I have no special talent.  I am only passionately curious."
2. Perserverence is priceless - "It's not that I'm so smart; it's just that I stay with problems longer."
3. Focus on the present - "Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves."
4. The Imagination is powerful - "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge."
5. Make mistakes - A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
6. Live in the moment - The future comes soon enough.
7. Create value - Strive not to be a success, but rather be of value.
8. Don't be repetitive - Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
9. Knowledge comes from experience: Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience.
10. Learn the rules and then play better. You to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
