Primary Classes 2 & 3 - Organic Matisse project

In this project the children learned about the difference between geometric shapes and organic forms while becoming familiar with the artwork of Henri Matisse. We had a blast!

A bird in the hand....beats two in the bush.

I somehow doubt that saying applies here.

Take my own advice...

"The situation you find yourself in now is small compared to the big picture"....
Easily said.
Take courage. My firm belief is that nothing happens by chance. We are all connected by the very nature of the chemistry that makes us up. Even the things around us, or the earth we live on, are all made up of the same chemical base. As the bible so eloquently states, "There is nothing new under the sun.". We have everything already inside us to create the reality we want.
The challenges we face are all part of our journey to refine us. Like metal in a furnace. We too come out the fire vibrant and strong! We need to be refined to be ready to do all things excellent.

Fun with Lael.....

The Blueberry Belly Cast

Lael was awesome! I can't wait to see what I create from her belly.... smile. I'm inspired to dig my own belly casts from the basement and make permanent casts out of them. I forgot how much fun 3D work is!

Don't quit your day job.....

So I hung out with my military ex-co-workers during their drill weekend. We went out for a little Karaoke. My ex-boss sang one of my favorite songs....."piano man". Teddy went country and they even suprised the crowd by getting me on the mic for "tequila". That was exciting since I'm not talking.... so all I had to do was dance around and when it was time to shout "tequila", I put the mic in someone's face. LOL! I had a real good time. I don't get out much....
