Glimpses into the Yoast Guillaume World

Brain cancer is...

 ...enjoying a little of Summer, Mousse, and Zach's world.

We had a great time sneaking a few glimpses into Summer and Zach's world today.  Above you see our efforts to get a family portrait with Mousse at home.  He was more interested in his gift, a bone.

We ended up with this:

The bone won out.

Mousse looks as good as always.  See how shiny? 

Earlier in the day Andi had the privilege to be welcomed into Zachary's ninth-grade algebra class by the administration, Zach, and his students.  Here's a stealth shot of Zach at the board, working with  the slope-intercept formula for a line.

Teary moments for one middle school teacher mom, watching her son in his own classroom?  Confirmed.  The most uplifting (but not at all surprising) thing was to see what an authentic, caring relationship Zach has with his students.  It was pretty clear they would do anything for their teacher.  One student waited late to meet Zach's mom...because he cared about Zach.  It was a pretty special afternoon.

Summer and Zach treated us to a seafood dinner, where about five of our shared dishes featured lobster.  Yum.  We camped at our table with great conversations that provided more glimpses into Zach and Summer's professional and academic worlds.

Lucky us.
