CELEBRATION!


I usually don't post personal and family photos on my blog but I wanted to make an exception tonight. It's Celebration Time!!! We attended our middle son's Senior Graphic Design Exhibition. That's Kevin standing in front of one of his creations (upper left). He is now ready to become an entrepreneur and hang out his shingle as a web designer along with other graphic design projects. Graduating from Stanford with a degree in computer science, he was well established in his field. After being diagnosed with a devastating chronic illness 7 years ago, he was no longer able to continue in the career he had established. Through hard work, focus, discipline, determination, a wonderful doctor, modern medicine and my good cooking, he has created a new path and life direction. It is wonderful having an in house graphic designer but now it is time to share his talent with the rest of the world. You can view his website by clicking on the blog title. Anybody need a website built?

Congratulations to Kevin. Sounds like lots of hard work and discipline is paying off. What a wonderful designer he is. Those Myrna genes are strongly entrenched! If I ever decide to do a Website, I know where to go.

Congratulations to your family and especially, Kevin, as he starts his new journey! I really like his face, Mom, so why no portraits of him? :) Wishing him the best of luck.

Myrna, thanks for sharing Kevin's success story and photo. What a great celebration and how wonderful to have an in house guru to "help" and "fix" your computer problems.

both should be rightly proud.

A proud day for Kevin and for both of you. Congragulations. I loved the font design, will he market it? The tide poster was of special interest to my husband who is a diver and fisherman. So much talent in one family is certainly a time for joyous celebration.
