Freaky Friday

Ever have a day you are at loose ends?

I checked my calendar today to do some planning for summer and found all the activities had previously planned had disappeared. So in between cleaning the bathrooms, walking the dog, doing 2 loads of laundry, and going to work, (part-time) I re planned the entire summer.

Summer is very busy for us, mainly because of all the enrichment I plan for my child,my husband's traveling and then there is free-lance work and classes. I teach art because it helps kids. It helps handwriting, self esteem, and frustration (self-expression). I also enjoy kids because they are uncensored. They tell you like it is!

My next door neighbor's son is one of my favorite kids. I call him Mr. Twigs because his legs are so skinny, they look like twigs. I have had some really precious kids in my classes, may favorite is my son. he is just like my husband, funny, cute, energetic and stubborn. At times I worry about him, but I know in time he will be fine after he grows up, (crossing fingers). We work on him to make sure he is well mannered, friendly, and caring. I love learning so he should be fine, however I know just about anything can happen to a person and I wish so much for him to be
a positive addition to society and good to himself.

We as parents have a responsibility to make sure our kids know how to handle stress, bad things in life, disappointments and just plain being shit on.

Life is like that. You go through a lot and you come out a different person. I think after you heal for the better. I speak from pure experience.

happy tidings!
