Congrats to my cousin, Rachel Engler, on her commission as an Ensign in the U.S. Navy Nurse Corps. Proud parents Brian and Max are both career Naval officers.

And special congratulations to my son Jackson, who graduated elementary school today, and then went on to steal the show in their culmination pageant. Walk tall, you special young man. (Gosh, it’s hard to type between the teardrops…)
