I was a rather serious art teacher when I first started.
I wanted to look professional and be respected for my craft.
It took me over a decade to realize...
All the preparation and perfectionism in the world can’t prepare me for a day with teenagers.
They just wanted to see me laugh.
And they wanted to know they were going to be okay.
🌿 Sunflowers are welcoming and bold.
But don’t let their bright, joyful demeanor fool you.
They pull toxins and heavy metals from the soil.
Cleansing from the inside out.
They're doing more than what meets the eye.
Just like the best teachers I know.
