These people are some of my favorite people in the world. I am lucky to have this family and be able to watch them all grow and become amazing individuals. I hope they know how much I love them. I love them so much I made an art journaling piece with all of them.⁠

Mmm... breakfast of champions! Protein-rich pancakes, turkey bacon, and the most important part of the meal.... COFFEE!!!! 😍☕☕☕ Probably the reason my What's For Breakfast classes haven't taken off is that my primary breakfast is coffee. But I'm trying to change that because breakfast is the most important meal of the day, right?⁠
⁠
Oh. And those gorgeous flowers you see... brought to you by @outschool_tammy because this year she was my Valentine. 💘 (it's ok. The husband has been my Valentine for years. He was happy to take the day off. 🤣)⁠

The Art Journaling prompt for Monday after my birt

The Art Journaling prompt for Monday after my birthday was "ancient" because I really was feeling ancient. I really couldn't decide what I wanted for this piece so I just started putting things together. It feels right. I wonder what my students were imagining with ancient. Sometimes they show me their artwork and sometimes they don't, but I love how each of them spends time creating.⁠

I read the Zinn's adult version of this book to the kids up to chapter 3, but it's a bit much for them so when I saw this book come around my "recommended" purchase list, I had to pick up a copy and make a shift to something more digestible for them. I love Zinn's non-Chirstian-white-washed version of U.S. history. It's hard to find historical texts not written wholly from the perspective of the "winner" in history, but it's becoming imperative that we provide a wider scope of historical perspective.⁠

Last month Karem @thinkersmeetup talked me into trying to teach advanced art. I have been pleasantly surprised that I have taught several successful courses and the artwork is turning out well. I am hoping to continue these lessons and maybe even expand them. What do you think? Good plan?⁠

We made Chipolte Chicken Burgers and Tortilla Soup for dinner on Friday night and if I do say myself, it was ahhhh-mazing. The husband says all of the food I've been cooking in my dinner classes is so delicious that eating out just won't be good anymore. If you're looking for yummy meals for your family, but don't want to cook, have the kids make dinner with me in What's For Dinner Tonight classes?⁠

This week we studied Umberto Boccioni in the Art in the Park sections. I wasn't prepared to answer several of the questions the study brought up - like "What does it mean to be drafted?" and "Why were the people in Russia rising up against the government?" 🤔 But that's the fun part about studying art and art history is learning about how all of the pieces come together and how the people were reacting.⁠

We've been studying human anatomy so what's better than a game of Pin the Muscle on the Sibling? 💪🏻 There were a lot of giggles, especially when placing the gluteus maximus. 🤣 Lol. I may be a little concerned that both kids put the abdominals on the forehead. Am I concerned because they don't know or because my six-pack is now such a keg that they have no reference? 🏋🏻‍♀️⁠

I don't find myself to be all that photogenic, especially the older I get, but Nancy is one of 2 great photographers that can always capture my good side. The key is putting up with my self-deprecation and absurdity and somehow managing to capture those moments in between.⁠
⁠
This is one of my promo photos and Nancy and I have a date to make a few more with wardrobe changes and all. 🙄⁠

The first semester of Art Journaling I started all

The first semester of Art Journaling I started all of these art journaling pieces, but never could finish many. This semester, I started a new thing where we meet on an optional second day of the week just to finish up our work. I am really glad I am taking the second day because now I have a better chance of finishing my work. This one I started back in October. I was glad to get it finished and I feel like it turned out good.⁠

This little cutie is spending quality time with Grandpa learning to play the new pink guitar Santa brought her. I could have signed her up for classes on @Outschool , but why when my Dad is the best musician I know? This was lesson one and he managed to make her cry which I call a total win. Lol. Just kidding. She cried, but out of frustration because learning a musical instrument is challenging. She was ready for lesson 2 right away so I call THAT a win.⁠

This is my new teaching mascot. She is finding a new home right next to me while I work. @rosarianatasha gave this little gem to me for Christmas and if I told you it means the world to me, I would be understating things. It's the sweetest little representation of a friendship that has become very important to me.⁠

I did this for the first time with a wonderful group of young boys I've been teaching on #thinkersmeetup for over a year now. I admit, it was a gamble on whether or not it would turn out even for me, much less the kids. I don't know how theirs turned out, but mine looks gorgeous. Through teaching art online, my own skill with various art mediums, including paint, has grown exponentially from where I started. I am becoming more confident in my skills and more adventurous in what I'm willing to try. And my students? They get to come along for the ride.⁠
⁠
And this painting will soon become the creation piece for our Art in the Park and Art with the Masters studies on Georgia O'Keefe.⁠

The week after Christmas I held classes, and in on

The week after Christmas I held classes, and in one of my classes only one student showed up. He's a really sweet kid that never does the project, but rather always does his own thing. I knew it was pointless for me to talk him through a project he wasn't going to do so I let him take the lead and he showed me how to use hot glue guns to melt crayons and make art. I really love how this piece turned out. ⁠
⁠
After class, his mom messaged me and said: I should also say thank you for letting [Student] just go his own way during the art class every week. He keeps telling me that his goal in art is to not be perfect or have to do it like everyone else. And hey, if art can become his retreat, that is wonderful. It occurs to me that in other aspects of [student's] life, or just a kid's life in general, there is such emphasis put on the idea of getting it right that having a place where you can consciously go to "get it wrong" is healthy and empowering.⁠
⁠
I think that is such a true statement. Kids are put in boxes to be just so, and what a wonderful opportunity for them to have a space to just be.⁠

In addition to being an amazing art teacher 🎨, did you know I also teach Physics? 👩🏻‍🔬 Ok, nothing really fancy, just beginning Physics for little people with a fun twist: classic cartoons. Of course, my claim to fame is blowing things up, but I haven't figured out an acceptable way to do that online. Hmmm.... 🤔maybe I'll have to put more thought into it.⁠

I am a dedicated nail-biter so I've never been one to paint my nails as the effect never lasts long. But @Lilyandfox has these amazing nail wraps with designs that are fun and quirky. 💅🏻 I can put them on and it curbs my nail-biting and I feel all fancy. Plus, when you teach online and 90% of what the students see is your hands doing art 🎨 or cooking 🥘, having nice hands makes you feel beautiful. I'm like a hand model! Ok... maybe not that beautiful. These wraps last through painting, drawing, cutting, gluing, chopping, grating, frying, and cleaning up.⁠

Hmmm... 🤔 I signed up the E's for one of @outschooltammy 's fabulous classes, but this doesn't look right. Either my children have really changed thanks to Tammy's fabulous teaching or.... 🤣😂 When we find teachers we love on @Outschool we stick with them. We bond with them. We get comfortable enough to watch class while hiding behind stuffed animals. The beauty of Outschool and homeschooling is we have the freedom to be ourselves, to relax into our lives, and to find joy in just being. That means sometimes our stuffed animals take classes and sometimes we take classes in just our underwear. 😳 I hope their freedom and creativity and lack of shame lasts their lifetime.⁠

We've been studying human anatomy so what's better

We've been studying human anatomy so what's better than a game of Pin the Muscle on the Sibling? 💪🏻 There were a lot of giggles, especially when placing the gluteus maximus. 🤣 Lol. I may be a little concerned that both kids put the abdominals on the forehead. Am I concerned because they don't know or because my six-pack is now such a keg that they have no reference? 🏋🏻‍♀️⁠

I don't find myself to be all that photogenic, especially the older I get, but Nancy is one of 2 great photographers that can always capture my good side. The key is putting up with my self-deprecation and absurdity and somehow managing to capture those moments in between.⁠
⁠
This is one of my promo photos and Nancy and I have a date to make a few more with wardrobe changes and all. 🙄⁠

The first semester of Art Journaling I started all

The first semester of Art Journaling I started all of these art journaling pieces, but never could finish many. This semester, I started a new thing where we meet on an optional second day of the week just to finish up our work. I am really glad I am taking the second day because now I have a better chance of finishing my work. This one I started back in October. I was glad to get it finished and I feel like it turned out good.⁠

This little cutie is spending quality time with Grandpa learning to play the new pink guitar Santa brought her. I could have signed her up for classes on @Outschool , but why when my Dad is the best musician I know? This was lesson one and he managed to make her cry which I call a total win. Lol. Just kidding. She cried, but out of frustration because learning a musical instrument is challenging. She was ready for lesson 2 right away so I call THAT a win.⁠

This is my new teaching mascot. She is finding a new home right next to me while I work. @rosarianatasha gave this little gem to me for Christmas and if I told you it means the world to me, I would be understating things. It's the sweetest little representation of a friendship that has become very important to me.⁠

I did this for the first time with a wonderful group of young boys I've been teaching on #thinkersmeetup for over a year now. I admit, it was a gamble on whether or not it would turn out even for me, much less the kids. I don't know how theirs turned out, but mine looks gorgeous. Through teaching art online, my own skill with various art mediums, including paint, has grown exponentially from where I started. I am becoming more confident in my skills and more adventurous in what I'm willing to try. And my students? They get to come along for the ride.⁠
⁠
And this painting will soon become the creation piece for our Art in the Park and Art with the Masters studies on Georgia O'Keefe.⁠

The week after Christmas I held classes, and in on

The week after Christmas I held classes, and in one of my classes only one student showed up. He's a really sweet kid that never does the project, but rather always does his own thing. I knew it was pointless for me to talk him through a project he wasn't going to do so I let him take the lead and he showed me how to use hot glue guns to melt crayons and make art. I really love how this piece turned out. ⁠
⁠
After class, his mom messaged me and said: I should also say thank you for letting [Student] just go his own way during the art class every week. He keeps telling me that his goal in art is to not be perfect or have to do it like everyone else. And hey, if art can become his retreat, that is wonderful. It occurs to me that in other aspects of [student's] life, or just a kid's life in general, there is such emphasis put on the idea of getting it right that having a place where you can consciously go to "get it wrong" is healthy and empowering.⁠
⁠
I think that is such a true statement. Kids are put in boxes to be just so, and what a wonderful opportunity for them to have a space to just be.⁠

In addition to being an amazing art teacher 🎨, did you know I also teach Physics? 👩🏻‍🔬 Ok, nothing really fancy, just beginning Physics for little people with a fun twist: classic cartoons. Of course, my claim to fame is blowing things up, but I haven't figured out an acceptable way to do that online. Hmmm.... 🤔maybe I'll have to put more thought into it.⁠

I'm not saying I'm an amazing cook, but what I am saying is I don't need Red Lobster for clam chowder and cheddar bay biscuits anymore. This meal is officially in our winter meal plan. What's for dinner at your house?⁠

I am a dedicated nail-biter so I've never been one

I am a dedicated nail-biter so I've never been one to paint my nails as the effect never lasts long. But @Lilyandfox has these amazing nail wraps with designs that are fun and quirky. 💅🏻 I can put them on and it curbs my nail-biting and I feel all fancy. Plus, when you teach online and 90% of what the students see is your hands doing art 🎨 or cooking 🥘, having nice hands makes you feel beautiful. I'm like a hand model! Ok... maybe not that beautiful. These wraps last through painting, drawing, cutting, gluing, chopping, grating, frying, and cleaning up.⁠

Hmmm... 🤔 I signed up the E's for one of @outschooltammy 's fabulous classes, but this doesn't look right. Either my children have really changed thanks to Tammy's fabulous teaching or.... 🤣😂 When we find teachers we love on @Outschool we stick with them. We bond with them. We get comfortable enough to watch class while hiding behind stuffed animals. The beauty of Outschool and homeschooling is we have the freedom to be ourselves, to relax into our lives, and to find joy in just being. That means sometimes our stuffed animals take classes and sometimes we take classes in just our underwear. 😳 I hope their freedom and creativity and lack of shame lasts their lifetime.⁠
