Can you believe that we are nearing the end of the 1st 9 weeks of school? It seems like only yesterday when we were “baking in the sun” at the swimming pool. With 3 children of my own, I cannot believe how much they have grown in just the past year. Last night I was looking at photos of our family and began to feel “old.” I (we) often get caught up in “working for a living” and sometimes forget my (our) reasons for living. With fall break coming up, I encourage each and every one of us to spend as much time as possible with our children. I will try to do the same. Whether it is reading a book, playing in the yard, riding bikes, playing games, or simply talking - whatever you do, if possible, do it with your family.
Have a great fall break,
Mike Culberson
