(Mondays are Lynn Miles Peisker days at The Daily Blur. Lynn’s the Executive Sister and Chief Plate Spinner at the Imagination Advisory Group. Check out her growing archive of posts here.)
Today is Tim‘s birthday. As his big sister, I’d like to take the opportunity to celebrate him today. And what better way to celebrate a man who loves words than with, well, words!
My word for Tim is brave. He is a brave husband, friend, brother and dad. He is a brave business man, bravely creative and brave enough to take risks when they count. Hiring me was one of those risks and I’m grateful.
I was just shy of 10 years old when he was born. I was called to the office at Gifford Grade School to take the phone call from our dad at the hospital. I was disappointed that he was a boy, but that quickly faded when I met him in person a few hours later. He hasn’t disappointed me since.
At my last minute request, some of Tim’s family and friends contributed one word to describe him.
Here’s the list so far:
Generous.
Bacon.
Daring.
Creative.
Incredible.
Terrific.
Cool.
Quick-witted.
Snuggler.
Charming.
Unstoppable.
Heartening.
Precise.
Godsend.
Crash.
Resolute.
Sentimental.
Tenacious.
Kind.
Super-Stickman.
Genuine.
Compassionate.
Advocate.
Dynamo.
Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious.
Annoyinglybrilliant.

Inspiring. Happy Birthday, Tim.
Daring! It takes courage to admit that you’ve learned life’s greatest lessons NOT from a marketing guru or someone with a bunch of degrees….but from a child!
Exemplary (and Ryan P’s comment made me laugh out loud!)
Happy Birthday, Mr. Unstoppable!
