There was a moment this morning where the stars seemed to align and I was able to consciously stop and take in my surroundings and just marvel in how amazing people can be.
Some back story...
Tomorrow, the business department is hosting a Financial Reality Fair - an event that allows local credit union representatives to engage our students in an interactive budgeting simulation. The type of thing that solves the crisis of this meme.
I needed to prepare the final touches on the event planning and then a student walked into the classroom with a giant box.

| Said Giant Box |
I'm not an overly emotional guy, but this got me. The box was a baby gift from a colleague, Kasey Lee, who for the record makes unbelievable cupcakes, cakes, etc. (Seriously...
Moonlight Baking Company made this cake for Annie's birthday). The handwriting, however, is the creation of one of my students from entrepreneurship last year, Ellen. She
developed a business in the class and she used this as an opportunity to showcase her creations.
A really cool experience, and I'm so grateful that these two incredible individuals created a moment that forced me to stop and appreciate how amazing people can be.
