My kids started new schools today. At the elementary school, parades of parents were escorting their children to classrooms. But...my 7 year old wanted to be dropped off... so little Miss Independent could make her own way to her classroom. I have to say...I was proud of her. My son started high school. He was so nervous...I'm not sure he slept the night before. We had to circle around the high school four times before he got out of the car. I felt really bad for him. Funny...how I don't remember any of my "first days" of school. Were they terribly traumatic that I blocked them out...or just not a big deal. I wish I could remember.
I just finished a new painting assemblage and video for it. The painting is mixed media on wood with jewelry elements. It was a blast because I got to play around with woodburning. Too cool. I call her my French Angel. I woodburned the saying "Light Tomorrow With Today" in French. Hope you like her.
I remember a first day... just like just about every other day of first grade, I had just moved and I cried all day (every single day) and did NOT understand why my teacher would not let me just go home (everyday-- that poor teacher!). I hope your children have a way better go at it than I did.
What a neat idea. I just bought a similar tool and have some old wood in the garage. Just might have to practice with that.
She came out really cute!
My kids start their first day tomorrow. I can't wait! I love 'em, but they had a really lazy, uneventful summer, and I can't wait for them to get a little stimuli!
S & O's first day went okay, I guess. O has a hard time adapting to change, so she's struggled a little more. And now we have two days off for Fay! Sending hugs up AIA to you. Stay dry and stay safe!
