Thank you for building Wilson AI and tailoring it to help 1PB.org reach more amazing founders. Really appreciate you walking me through it today. It’s an amazing product! Great work while also being an awesome dad. ✨

Alex, thank you and the staff at CCDC for a wonderful tour last week for our family. You've created a wonderful community for children and families, and we would be honored to be a part of it in the future. Either way, we appreciate your warmth, kindness, and passion for early childhood education. 🙏

Yossi, I'm so grateful for our friendship! You have a gift for bringing people together across diverse points of views and helping them find a bridge to each other. I appreciate the unique perspective you always bring to a situation and the dimension you add to the ways of thinking about the most challenging issues. And I'm inspired about the patience and creativity you bring to fatherhood! Love you 🫶

Thank you mamá for being so welcoming and always making life fun wherever you go. So many kids have benefited from your creativity, including ours. You are so generous and I learn something from you every time we see each other. 🙏

Happy birthday, Saba! Thank you so much for your help as we grow our family. We're really going to need your experience with all the house-related issues that come up, but we're looking forward to this new chapter. And now there will be plenty of parking space. Thank you! 🙏

Dragă mamă! Vreau să-ți mulțumesc pentru tot efortul pe care l-ai depus pentru ca eu să cresc și să devin persoana care sunt azi. Deși nu am mâncat întotdeauna mingea de tenis și de multe ori am mâncat doar o bătaie, am învățat de la tine simțul umorului și un scepticism sănătos care îl prețuiesc! Te iubesc mult de tot! ❤️

Tim, great to see you briefly today. Thank you for all the fun nights at the Saranac. We're moving now, too, and I will always remember with fondness all of our hangouts and all the hacks I learned from you and the books you so generously shared. Also appreciate you rooting for Romania whenever possible. 🙏

Mircea, nice to connect today. I appreciate you taking the time to invest in the Eastern European entrepreneur community in New York, and I believe in you as a future VC rockstar of Romanian origins. Also, it was a real pleasure playing basketball with you and winning a categorical victory over those two guys at the park in Chinatown!

Tibi, happy birthday to you! Really appreciate you making an effort to keep our friendship strong through the chaos of raising a family. Always coming and showing up, even when it's far away or on a cold day, for Vara's birthday. You are a rock! 🙏

Naomi, great meeting you today! Keep inspiring people through tennis 🎾- you’re a positive force in the world ✨

Ali and Dave, thank you for having us over, and also thank you for such a wonderful summer. It's always a blast when our families spend time together. When Lima will be inducted into the Lacrosse Hall of Fame, his speech will mention Uncle Dave teaching him how to play lacrosse when he was 2 years old. Seriously though, you guys lead your lives with such passion and grace, it's inspiring! 🫶

Thank you for the work and care you've put into Aventi. I really appreciate you pushing your skills forward and love your passion for fitness, family, and personal projects. 🙏

Oriana, thank you for being such a wonderful teacher in such a critical time of a child's development. You make even the toughest moments and the most challenging days seem wonderful. We appreciate you so much. 🙏

Mary Ellen, thank you for walking us through finding a place that truly fits. Your calm strength and clear understanding make everything feel more natural. You seem to sense what we need even before we speak, and it means so much. It’s a privilege to be with you as we start this new chapter. 🙏

Krista, thank you for the work you do to help kids get into college. You're bringing a tremendous enthusiasm to iMentor and make it one of the greatest nonprofits I've ever come across. You are the shining bright star at the top of the hill and I so appreciate you. ✨

Wendy, thank you for putting on the wonderful Alex Fund event last weekend. You are a rockstar and brought so much to the Romanian community in New York. And thanks for including me and putting the OpenThanks ad in the booklet. 🙏

Abi, thank you for your wonderful personality and joy you bring to our work together every day. You learned so much so quickly and it was so great to meet in person for the team gathering in Milwaukee. From tarot cards to kite surfing to matte connoisseur, you never cease to surprise and delight everyone around you. You rock! 🦄

Eric, thank you for coming to New York that one day and explaining to me the need for a better 340B TPA. I'm grateful you involved me in Aventi and it's been a tremendous journey with you, Jon, and the team. Also it's energizing to see your passion for growth, helping people and being an awesome dad/coach at the same time. Here’s a virtual venti mocha to you! ☕️

Jon, thank you for your patience as we build Aventi into a wonderful company that serves its customers and its team members. I admire how well you balance that with family and personal interests and it's a joy to be working each day with you! (now even diving into code and doing pull request together). Onward and upwards! 🦄

Jenica, thank you for always pushing me to be a better me. You are such a beautiful creative force and I’m grateful we met that cold night at Little Charlie’s. I’m proud of every moment together and our countless adventures. Te iubesc! ❤️ P.S. And it doesn’t hurt that we made the cutest family. 🦄 🚜 🐚
