Lesson learned from Squeakfest '09 Part 2 - "Kids Workshop"

Posted Wed, 2009-09-02 13:41 by cwithers

Truth be told, I have an ego the size of Manhattan. Children have a way of giving you a reality check and make you realize that you don’t know jack. I found this out when I had my girls. They don’t even have to do anything but be themselves and ask the questions an adult would be afraid to voice out.

Lessons from Squeakfest 2009 - Part 1

Posted Wed, 2009-09-02 13:38 by cwithers

This entry is long overdue. The delay is due in part to a week long vacation that I took. Another reason it took me this long to write this is because it was too hard to summarize the experience with just one blog entry, nor would it give justice to the people who had put time in making the event a success. Like Tim Falconer’s post, I would just have to direct you first to the videos and I’ll try to convey the lessons that I learned personally from that experience.

I must admit that before coming to this event I was both filled with excitement and trepidation.
