Thanks for the Inspiration

I would like to thank everyone who attended the Haslett Foundation's 2010 Inspiration Awards Ceremony this past Wednesday. It was a very special occasion because of everyone's presence. Words can not express how much it meant to have you all there... or wait. Maybe there is a word after all.

At the ceremony when I was given the chance to say thank you, I briefly talked about how myself and many others are just a piece to the puzzle of raising the youth in our village. The saying "It takes a village to raise a child" is right on. Haslett is a great "village" because we have so many important and unqiue puzzle pieces, that when we put them together we have a master piece.

On Friday evening the Stanko's watched Mary Poppins. Had I watched this movie prior to Wednesday, I would have been able to elaborate on this a little more. Something along the lines of... this award is a product of being a part of a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Village. A village that is "atoning for educability through delicate beauty."

When in doubt be Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Nick: Drennan forwarded me the announcement of your award! I very much enjoyed the video! Connie and I have seen your billboard on I-94 during our drives to Ann Arbor celebrating your victory in the Detroit Marathon. We look forward to meeting up with you and Theresa in the near future. Congratulations on your well deserved recognition, and best wishes for your continued success!
