There are so many wonderful things out there that I had no idea about! I'm super excited to find such an awesome community of creators!!
I recently found :
I've signed up and am SUPER excited!!!
I did the Pay it forward as well, but I still have no one to send art to!
So today is FRIDAY. How happy I am about that...I am going camping with my 4 bestest girl friends this weekend to Cape May. I have never been there and we are camping at Seashore Campsites which is near the beach. I'm ready for a nice little vacation. Lucky for me we have a blow-up mattress because my 8 month pregnant body can't handle sleeping on the ground!! We're leaving early tomorrow morning.
This weekend is the SUPER moon! So it will be awesome to see from the beach!
Yesterday my department chair was named Teacher of the Year for our county!! Pretty exciting day for her and for our department! I've been working with her for 4 years, and she's shown me a lot and has helped me grow a lot too. Its pretty neat having someone you know win such a big award.
So my students self-portrait drawings are almost complete. Once they are finished they will begin their final part to their last projects of the year. With May 25th being my last day, it makes for only 6 more meetings with each class, we see them every other day. I cant believe the year is almost over! I am actually already starting to get excited about next school year. Its weird...it seems like at the end of every school year I'm awaiting the start of the next! I guess that means I really enjoy what I do.
I am excited about this summer. I will have my baby girl Element...and some free time to relax with her and create. When I had my son I was student teaching, so I didn't have a nice break when he was born. I went right back to school about 2 weeks after so that I could finish on time and graduate, and then I had to apply and go to interviews and worry about if I'd find a job in the fall. So this will be like a new experience. First girl, first summer with a newborn, first chance to relax and just make art and not have to worry. Super excited. Not to mention my partner is super amazing and I cant wait to see him as a new daddy in action with his first little girl.
So I've been creating a layout a day in my journal, Its been nice...a little nerve racking beause I can never decide what to do...but I'm letting that go. I have small issues with deciding on things. Choosing what medium, what topic, theme, how, where, when....those things create anxiety in me. So I'm just letting go and doing what comes out. I think I'll take some pictures of my layouts and post them.
Well I hope everyone has a beautiful Friday!!
Love & Light

I've joined the HeArt exchange too! I did it last time too and it was magical... I can't wait to start again. :) Don't worry about the pay it forward, it can take some time! Hehe... I still have to create my little gifts.. I think I will do that this week.
