I see you Skye

I see you took the broom and dustpan from behind the fridge and cleaned up the floor and the particles underneath the table. 

I see you observed the floor was sticky and wanted to mop the floor if the mop was available. 

I see you delight in food and relish in great sources of information.

I see you harbor a curiosity for learning.

I see you immediately found recipes to work with after the NY Times subscription

I see you picked three recipes and you KILLED all three. 

I see you make a few minutes of time to lift weights and exercise..  

I see you take care of your health and nourish your skin.

I see your efforts with your counselor and your physics teacher to maintain your grade point.  I see you unaffected by your counselor even though the counselor said it was Ok and to not be affected. I see you persisted and got to a better place in Physics:  All A's don't just happen. They are a mark of persistence, diligence and excellence.  Ostinato Rigore, as DaVinci says. 

I see your desire to practice with your voice teacher in person  - All great things happen in person. 

I see your virtual practice with your teacher and listened to your voice from afar.  It sounds like heaven. 

I see you refuse to take two rolls of expensive film, but one roll instead. 

I see you immediately Venmoed the money you owed me. Such a great attitude to give back something you owe: immediately and with gusto!

I see that when you found your card that you did not have during the fair, you promptly responded that you found it. 

I see you are enriched by history and deeply affected by it. 

I see you educated me about Simone de Beauvoir and Emmanuel Kant and the words "The ends don't justify the means". 

I see you educated me about Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson and the work that changed the course of our country.  

I see when you were buying things for you, you were buying things for others.

I see you delight in supporting the community of artists.

I see you Skye.

You make mom and dad very proud of who you are. 

God bless you Skye.
