Leader

Taking charge, stepping up, being a leader. Those words, better yet thoughts have been surrounding me the past few weeks as changes and events have taken place. Here are some of the reasons why:

My father was the mayor of the town I grew up in. He lead his community, my home community through so much. Just like he did with my family. The city hall was named after him, because of his leadership.

This is in Lilburn, GA less than a mile from the house that I grew up in. Leading is about change, but I am no so sure that all change is good change.

In Leadership Rome, we got the opportunity to kayak down a river in Rome. I am thankful that I got the guts to do it!

This is the suitcase that I gave Amelia before she left to go after her dreams. At this very moment she is interviewing with one of the top law firms in the country. She will lead so may people.

The centerpiece of my cousin's wedding. A new relationship for the bride and groom will begin.

Ok, ok I didn't lead anything but I heart crab legs.

Sometimes leaders need to rest on the beach too.
