Reading YOUR story, you and Steph, makes me appreciate how short our time here is. To appreciate the little things. A sunset, the beach, a bird fighting for the first bite of chopped nuts… the grass, the sky, fresh air…

Thank you so much for writing this book and for sharing it not just with me, but with the world.

I have a renewed passion for this trip we get to call life and part of it is thanks to you both. I love you and I miss you.

Cheers to this thing we call life!

While reading Your Voice Matters! Together We’re Better! I was inspired by Stephanie’s clever strategies as a principal to accomplish her goals for her schools. One example is in chapter 22 Satire pages 194-195 where Charming Frog challenged the Effectiveness Committee to implement the support the school needed or close the school down. And the school stayed open.

But I would admit my very favorite part of the whole book is Stephanie climbing the rope.
