For the past ten days, Dr. Shanon Brooks has been taking Southern California by storm, with the powerful message of the first ever TJEd 1,000,000 “tour”.

Yesterday was the conclusion, and here are the results:

The message of TJEd 1,000,000 was presented to 888 people…

Over 100 libraries were placed in homes…

Hundreds of individual books were purchased…

By the time Dr. Brooks arrives at home, 2800 miles will have been traveled…

The response was overwhelming!…

People have consistently asked “when we will do this again”…

January 201o, is looking to be the answer!…

More details will follow soon…

But now, we would like to thank the following people, whose combined efforts and vision made this such a huge success!

Tami Clinger and Gale da Rosa

Alysa Whitlock and Stephanie Howells-Scoville

Pamela Duvall

Matt and Diana Sanders

Deena Ortiz and Angela Ward

Dana Palmer and Jean Arnott

Willard and Amber Snow

Joelle Mancuso and Shawn Crane

Emily Beeli

Randy and Ruth Lawrence

Sheila Edmonds

Cydne Norris

Mikki Cabrera

Colleen Willard and Heidi Christianson

Joana Johnson

Without you, we couldn’t have achieved these amazing results!

We thank you, we appreciate and applaud you for moving the cause of liberty!…

We would love to hear from those of you that attended in the comments section of this post.

Just a reminder that starting next week…

we will be using a random generator

to give out weekly “fabulous prizes”…

to those individuals that choose to leave comments under the Monday, Wednesday, Friday posts!

Why not begin practicing now?

Hope you win!

The Mancuso Family hosted us in their home for the night as well.

It was a lovely and wonderful experience.

I love to go into the homes of families practicing TJEd…

It is inspiring, infuses one with hope, and serves to give affirmation at the grass roots level; that there are families in America taking responsibility for furthering the cause of liberty and freedom through education.

There are still others that would really like to know what this looks like on a daily basis.

In its purest form, TJEd is very organic…

Read Leadership Education by Oliver and Rachel DeMille to gain further insight.

It can be used with any educational or life model.

It is principle based, not “forms” driven.

You don’t have to belong to a club, organization, or institution to “qualify.”

You simply take the principles and begin…with you, not them.

Throughout history, millions have done just that…

With amazing results…

I loved this simple, yet effective wall in the Mancusos kitchen area.

The written word is powerful affirmation.

And coupling words with pending holidays is quite an affirming visual for people.

The turkeys are the Mancuso children’s hands. I ask you, how cute is that?

I also took some pictures for you of the kitchen island…pilgrims, pumpkins, the Declaration of Independence… visual affirmations of values being communicated in core and love of learning.

These are phases of learning that we continue to build on throughout our lives.

I know that I seized the moment to add my turkey to the wall!

What are you thankful for?…

Perhaps some visual affirmation would be in order?…

It is my desire that this blog community would be a place to lend your comments…

We benefit from the diversity and perspective of others…

I invite you to sound off!…

Of course, fabulous prizes often help!…

Starting the week after Thanksgiving, in celebration of the upcoming holiday season, there will be one prize a week given to a lucky TommyMom reader!

All you have to do is read and comment!…

It’s like Christmas and Hanukkah coming to your door!…

A random generator will pick one of the comment numbers, and that individual will become the lucky recipient of the featured prize!…

Be sure and sound off!…

Tune in Monday to see the results of the first TJEd 1,000,000 tour with Dr. Brooks!

So far, so good amazing!

Two hundred and seventy-four people attended the three events of the day.

All walks of life.

Plurality. Of faith, of worldview, of political leanings.

Lots of TJEd libraries in homes.

I love America.

I especially love that this “tour,” which is so impactive in its message, and relevant to all Americans,

began on a day as significant as Veteran’s Day.

Perhaps this trio of photos, drawn by a young, upcoming statesman, of which I’m particularly fond ( son #1),

will more accurately portray the overall sentiment of each and every meeting.

No doubt about it.

There is power in the people.

And history has proven that in an informed citizenry, it is virtually unstoppable.

Leadership.

Education.

As opposed to following and “schooling.”

It can be practiced in every educational “form.”

Is individualized.

Won’t ever appeal to the masses.

Life changing.

Student directed.

Power.

Of, by, for, and to…the people.

Catch “the whirl.“

Dr. Brooks is coming to a location near you…you don’t want to miss it.

If  you’ve been, care to  share your comments? We’d love to hear from you!
