Today I am grateful for:
wonderful friends who made me laugh with their fabulous comments - you knew the exact responses I needed to hear :) Thank you!!
I am grateful that I have all the 'external' Christmas gifts bought now....only gifts for my own children to get now and I will be done - and I have several of those already so I am making good progress :) this makes me feel much happier considering I don't know what the next 6 weeks will hold!
I am grateful for a lovely family-centred evening - movie, game, knitting, library, crafts, chatting....and it's only just 8pm :)
I am grateful that within 5 minutes of posting about my latest class idea, I already had 3 people sign up!! It's so exciting. Maybe I was born to teach art!! :) And the more people I talk to, the more horrific stories I hear about students turned off of art by art teachers who criticize their art work from a very young age. It's so sad! Art should be FUN - children should be ENCOURAGED!!!
