He is indeed. Of course I might be a tiny bit biased. 😉🙏🏻

What a lovely illustration of the growth mindset, expressed naturally. That sense of future possibilities stretching out endlessly in front of us...

Love this David! This story reminds me of my MiMi (maternal grandmother rooted in Iowa) & the invitation to curiosity she often invited us to sample as children with a spoon of a "no thank you helping" on the plate re: any food declined as kids. Now my sister loves tomatoes & food became part of my palette for creating a business!

Also curiously timed to this musing...last night's luminous, full moon...she loved to remind me how I'd exclaim excitement at the moon as a little kid when she held me in her arms at night under the stars during our annual week-long visits to the midwest. I now think of her every time I see the moon & in some ways, feel closer to her than I did before she passed away 🙏

Such a splendid memory and grandparent. I truly believe those moments are why humans live as long as we do. To provide memories and unconditional love to the next generation.
