I wast trying to think of the best way to title this blog post..so many thoughts come to mind, but "Get-r Done" seemed to be the most fitting for a variety of reasons.
This experience is all about my wife Stephanie (http://www.twitter.com/binkstwit) and her never ending willingness to give and get things done. Unlike myself where getting things done can take on a variety of shapes, for her, getting it done is about doing it right, and very well. She take great pride in anything she does, and does things with the state of mind where she wants to be proud to have her name attached to it. Before I even go there though, what is so great about Steph, is her willingness to step up to get it done. In times where we ALL are stretched thin and pulled in a dozen or more different directions, she always finds a way to take on new things, do them extremely well, and deliver.
I can go on and on about her, and she will without a doubt be my inspiration for future posts, but for this I want to point out her leadership in organizing a major fundraiser for Hope School. As with most private schools, the cost to educate a child far exceeds tuition. With that, fundraising (or development) is a necessity. This year, Steph stepped up to the challenge to lead the "Hope School Rocks" fundraiser, an 80's themed event with entertainment, food, and small auction. This Saturday people will gather and turn back the clock, in an effort to help the school and the kids they serve. Steph took the challenge head on and, as I have witnessed first hand, is "Getting it Done" big time. It is shaping up to be a great event.
In encourage everyone to step up to the plate, take on new challenges, and get-r-done! We will always be pulled this way or that way, but it take a special person to step up and "Make it Happen!"
