Open letter to a champion

You are amazing. I love the way you support my ideas and dreams. You even came up with a new idea for a career in which you thought I could excel. Maybe that was slightly self-serving. I don't really mind. I appreciate your consistently positive attitude and your ability to find humor in potentially frustrating situations. Just quietly, I think your way of dealing with kids is incredible. You are so good at getting them excited about knowledge -- I guess because you are. You're quite inspiring.
