The 2025-2026 school year marks my 33rd year in education and my daughter Ocean’s final year in high school. Nadia and I were a bit emotional yesterday morning when we took photos with her as she prepared for classes. We can’t believe this is the final year with our children in K-12 school! Ocean has grown into a beautiful young woman, and we are proud of her.
We always ask the kids to lean on the front door on the first day of school. It is an homage to my parents. They used to make my brothers and I do this on the first day of school. Ocean is shown above in the three countries where she lived for her schooling. I don’t want to get into clichés here about how time flies, etc. We love you Ocean! Enjoy your senior year!
