It just dawned on me that my Grandkid is going back to school and entering the third grade on Monday, how the time flew by. So I’m dedicating this post to him and sharing some of pictures from his 2013 Kindergarten Graduation.

“We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone  today.” 
 ~Stacia Tauscher

“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.”  
~Frederick Douglass

“While we try to teach our children all about life,
 Our children teach us what life is all about.”
~Angela Schwindt
A special note to Parents and care givers of any kind, I leave you with this quote:

“If you haven’t time to respond to a tug at your pants leg, your schedule is too crowded. “
~Robert Brault

Also enjoy these years with your children, because before you know it they will be graduating High School!

Muhammad Ali Sculptor

Gloves

I was invited to cover this Tribute for Mr. Muhammad Ali at The Staple Center in downtown Los Angeles a few years back and thought I would share this photo again.
The most fascinating thing about this portrait is that is made up entirely of boxing  gloves!

Here’s one of favorite quotes from Mr. Ali:

“Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.”
~Muhammad Ali 

I had the privilege of meeting Ali about twelve years ago and it’s a memory that I will never forget! My blessing go out to his family and friends.

If I can find the pictures from my first meeting with Ali ( before digital so there in a box somewhere) I will share them with you.
