Yay!
After a nearly two week ordeal our little guy is home to begin eating and growing like a normal baby should. We couldn't be more thrilled.
On the Grand Rapids front, it is FREAKING COLD! Today being the 13th, I pulled my 13th day in a row of 43 minutes or more of cardio when Bart and I went for 1 hour+ snowshoe in our frigid climate. It was beautiful scenery.
ICC classes started up yesterday and here is a new one. Thermo is at 7 AM. It turns out this engineering subject is so exciting that even 29 college students will get up that early to learn it. Quote of the day as class was wrapping up and I was writing the hwk assignment on the board a student says "hey it's starting to get light out".
Engineering Academy update: The snowball of excitement is starting to roll down hill. We have a 4 year university chomping at the bit to be our partner in this new pedagogy. Lots to be done, but the time is ripe to try a new model for learning and we may be the one's to try it.
Daughter Liz started her first semester at Mankato State yesterday. She has her own apartment, is meeting new friends, and is excited to dance in a new program. I'm excited that she has to walk through the engineering building on the way to other classes. I told her the nerdy looking guys will make the most money!
Congrats to all of the college seniors who have recently passed the FE. Thanks for sharing your good news. Start your job searches yesterday. This will probably be the toughest year in all that I've been in this business.
