OK. I love being a mom. Really I do. But let's face it. The immediate rewards can be hard to appreciate. No paycheck. The only way you get time off is to pay for it yourself - arranging childcare which you then pay for with money or time. Not only do you never get an "attagirl!" but the people you are trying most to help are fighting against you much of the time, bless their little hearts.
Hmmm. I'll have to remember to thank my lovely husband and children for the good things they do. They probably don't hear "thank you" often enough either.
In other great news, Play With Paint will open for registration this Saturday at Quilt University. The start date is March 15th. I'm really looking forward to seeing seeing what people come up with when they lose some of their inhibitions and just PLAY! I absolutely love teaching. And this is a great opportunity. I get to stay home with the munchkins and play with my grown-up friends too. Hope to see some of you there!
No wonder I glow when this happens.
That's my artwork, my words, right there looking lovely in Quilting Arts Magazine. One reader actually wrote to tell me that her ENTIRE university class showed up the morning after it arrived in Canada with the article in hand. Amazing how far a "thank you" can carry you. I've been dancing all day!
