My two high schoolers on the first day of school: Kolton, a freshman and Kassidi, a senior.
Back to the Grind?
Fall has finally fallen – at least on the calendar – and I for one, couldn’t be more grateful. Yes, we all love the lazy, hazy days of summer, but I confess that by the first of August, I’m ready to fall back into a somewhat normal – if not more hectic – routine.
In my experience, I have found that there’s nothing routine about the challenges attorneys face in their profession, and in this issue, we look at some of the finest legal firms in Fort Bend. On our cover is the largest female-owned firm in Fort Bend, and the two partners at the helm of Mitchell and Duff are not only proven professionals, they are immersed in our community with their passion for service. Amy Mitchell and Elizabeth Duff-Drozd of Mitchell and Duff are one small firm delivering big results for their clients. Read about their incredible work on page 14.
One routine event my family and I look forward to each fall is the Fort Bend County Fair. This year marks the 78th anniversary of the Fair, and this legendary community event has it all: events, rides, live entertainment, shopping, a wine room and bar-be-que. This year, the Fair awarded 47 scholarships to Fort Bend youth from the proceeds of last year’s event. That’s something to be proud of! I’ll certainly be stopping by the Fair this year. Look for me – and complimentary copies of our West Fort Bend magazine absolutely! Brazos – in the Grapes on the Brazos Wine Room in Building W. I hope to see you there!
Esteemed First Lady Jackie Kennedy said, “The only routine with me is no routine at all.” While I may crave some semblance of a routine, the First Lady’s words accurately describe my reality. My real routine – with two high schoolers and four monthly magazines to produce – is frankly, no routine at all. Oh well, keeps things interesting.
Stay focused!
