Tommy talks about his 2 daughters Madeline and Clara and their persistence and growth. madeline was accepted to Show Choir as a sophomore. What a HUGE accomplishment and Clara is running cross country. Her time consistently get better and better at each race. Keeping at it is the only way to get better. Some times you fall and finish last, but if you never try, you can never get better.

Today marks the first day of school for Madeline, Clara and Tommy. How great it is to see their excitement and joy of learning. Clara is also on the cross country team. How fun for her. last night I had the opportunity to see and be a part of the return flight of the Old Glory Honor Flight. Almost 1000 people cam to ATW to see these vets return from their day in Washington DC. What an honor to pay tribute to such valiant servicemen and women.
