Day One

Convocation takes place at 11. Heckler gave us a preview of his speech yesterday at staff meeting. He asks himself each day how he will serve Valpo's mission. Each word is precious in the statement. This guy gets Valpo. We welcomed our new student employee Christiana. She is a freshman (can we keep her 4 years?).

In personal news, I taught Robby a game. I say, "I one the goldfish." He replies, "I two the goldfish." We go back and forth adding numbers until he ends with "I eight [ate] the goldfish." This makes us giggle. I also asked him "Why did seven get in trouble?" The answer "because seven eight [ate] nine." It is great to have an innocent audience.
