My daughter came home from a friend’s house and told me that one of the parents asked about her upcoming trip to San Diego. When she mentioned it was for one of my conferences, he asked if it was Spear. She said yes, and he replied, “She must be a really good dentist—really good dentists go to Spear.”
She looked at me and asked, “Mama, is that true? Are you a really good dentist?”
I smiled and said, “Yes, sweet girl, Mama is a really good dentist.”
Her face lit up with pride.
Friends, I strive for excellence for the benefit of my patients, for the personal satisfaction of doing my best work, and just as importantly, because I have four beautiful children that are watching 💕
