Lunch Box Quotes

Life comes at you fast man, life comes at you fast….Some quotes below about consistency. So last week the school put out an announcement for Number 2. I had AI slightly change it for posting here, but Number 2 is signing! I think it is pretty cool that they are treating this as an actual signing on par with how they celebrate kids signing to play college sports, and it is not just because this is my kid. It is because they are building a pipeline to do this again. A pipeline from high school directly to the trades. This is quite the accomplishment and a testament to his hard work and commitment to the craft. 

Lunch Box Quotes are notes I usually include in the kids’ lunches. Since Number 1 is off in college and Number 2 is skipping lunch now (he’s trying to cut weight for lacrosse), they both get a text. Number 3 also gets a text because I was up late, so today only Number 4 gets handwritten notes on napkins.

There’s an old Tibetan proverb that I love:

“If you take care of the minutes, the years will take care of themselves.”
