Parents, We are excited to introduce you to a great resource for high school students: Perkins’ virtual Compass program! Anxiety set in as I flipped the calendar from February to March. On March 18, 2025 my divorce was finalized. Even though my ex and I are amicable the anniversary of that date carried 32 years of weight. Hi, it’s Kai. Great little hike today on a friends-trip. Anna Ruby Falls had a cool accessible path with Braille on all the placards. “I have reached a new level of acceptance and comfort with myself.” — Kai Owens, 23 Happy 28th birthday, Cash. We love you so much. ❤️ THIS ASSISTIVE TECH IS BUILT INTO iPHONES AND IS SO USEFUL! I just made it to NJ. Kai arrives in about an hour. 🙌🏻 Then we’re off to tour two schools!  On Saturday Kai has a round 2 audition on the drum set. NEW on the blog! The Owens Brothers are on another adventure! They are snowboarding at Winter Park in Colorado.
