Doing the work and seeing it bear fruit. I immortalized #ChloeCooley in an exhibit, led in the designation of her on a provincial plaque, contributed to the Heritage minute of her story and wrote and taught about her. Now today is she hononured with a Canada post stamp!

Building relationships is the first step. It’s the nurturing, re-connecting, and tending to that helps our relationships deepen and evolve. Kids need that. We do too. In 2023 let’s not just build, let’s be IN relationship.
