“Do all the good you can.” – Charles Dickens

Thursday, November 18, 2010. Today I am grateful for people who humbly and quietly go about making the world work, with very little public recognition, such as Moms. Way to go, gals! As my Mom says, “If the men had the babies, there would be only one per family.” Or a lot less than that! šŸ˜®

ā€œDo all the good you can, and make as little fuss about it as possible.ā€ ~ Charles Dickens (1812-1870); novelist

Thank you Charles! Thank you Moms!

Tuesday, August 17, 2010. Today I am grateful to have some time to be writing again. Yesterday I had no time for writing as we (my wife Jeannette and I) were clearning up and repairing a basement suite all day and all evening.

We were blessed to have the invaluable help of our dear friend Craig Reilly. He not only helps with the drudge work, he also solves intricate repair problems and incomprehensible electrical issues.

He is a genius with humility and patience, a rare combination perhaps?

We’ve been friends with Craig and his wife Val “forever.”

How much we are able to learn from our friends, if we let ourselves.

How much they are able to learn from us if they wish to do so.

We can learn without judgment and without blame. Isn’t that what good friends are for? And isn’t that what we need and want from our families at home and from our classrooms at school?

Craig Reilly has helped us with so many projects over so many years, we cannot count the depth and breadth of his service to us. And he gives service with unstinting patience to all, not just to us.

We salute you, Craig, on the mountaintops of achievement and in the valleys of laughter and sorrow.

Here’s to best friends, and best learning, at home and at school.
