Hello Lake Bluff multilingual families! I hope everyone is enjoying the weather now that it is finally starting to warm up!

Here is a quote from the video that stuck with me: "Space is a very unforgiving environment, and it often takes a very diverse team of people to be able to overcome space challenges."
