This will be short. Today is my son Elliott Knofsky McCarthy's first day as a full time teacher. As I am writing this he is preparing to welcome his very first class of 6th grade young men to his classroom at Boy's Latin of Philadelphia Middle School.
I have always been proud of Elliott. He is a remarkable young man who has dealt with so many personal challenges in his life and has come out of each one a better and wiser person. Fortunately.
It seems that he has the resilience that I still strive for.and as I go about my day and weeks and months ahead I could take some lessons from him.
Carpe diem! They fly by so quickly.
