Coding SS in grades 1-2 @shawaveschool got started with @ScratchJr app today. They were excited to learn how to create and save a new project. They made the cat disappear, move 10 steps forward, and reappear. They also chose their own backgrounds and 3 characters to race.

My heart was broken 💔 when I saw this video where a 65 year old Asian American (Filipina) woman was assaulted by this man out of nowhere while she was walking to church) in New York. This was so inhumane! We Asians/Filipinos do not deserve this #AsianHate. #AsianLivesMatter

I can FINALLY announce that FISH IN A TREE will be a movie! AND I’m going to make an appearance on film; that will be wild!
LOVE the script; the characters have remained who they are in the book.

I’m not allowed to release studio or actor details yet but that is coming! 🎥 🍿

I'm so incredibly honored and humbled to be the first @SecondGentleman of the United States. As we countdown to Inauguration Day, I've been doing my homework—and looking to the past for inspiration.
