He is 14 today but I swear he’s starting to look closer to 24:
Here he is receiving the Billy Mitchell Award in March, named after the founder of the Civil Air Patrol. I was there for the ceremony and I got to see him in action at CAP for the first time and…just wow. He is a born leader and that organization is really fostering it.
He is also polite, still curious about everything, super smart, and so, so kind. At the award ceremony, his fellow cadets gave him a standing ovation, twice–not because they were told to, but because he’s made a connection with each of them.
Happy birthday, Skyler! We love you and are so proud of you.
