Happy Mother’s Day!

The other day my mother was talking about being an art teacher – her career before marriage. She said the challenge was to teach creativity, not just have her students follow instructions. “I tried not to have any copy work,” she said. “Mostly creative projects. I tried to make art relevant to future life. Putting together clothes, painting a house, making a garden, designing a room, etc. Even choosing a dog.” (Like her fabulously talented dog Minnie.)

I thought how lucky I am to have a mom like this…

…one who taught me, showed me, creativity as a way of life.

Thanks, Mom for making our family a work of art. Love, Moira
