I am so excited to get my garden ready for 'veggie season';<br />
then, I read an amazing book that I really want to share.<br />
Where to begin?<br />
I received a book in the mail the other day ... and got up at 4 am so I could read it before starting my day.<br />
That was five days ago, and it is still on my heart's mind constantly.Thank you, Rita.<br />
<br />
<b>My "Auto" Biography </b><i>by </i>Rita Walsh<br />
<br />
Rita and I grew up in the same neighborhood in Hingham, Massachusetts ... many years ago. Reading her beautiful book took me back to 'the neighborhood' ... to the kids, the fams, the connections, the neighborhood togetherness. Her book is, clearly, deeper than our neighborhood antics ... though it brought me back to, and through, so much.<br />
It makes me revisit writing a biography of sorts ... hmmmm ... maybe.<br />
<br />
Rita exposes her heart and shares in a way that we can all relate to. If you would like to read her beautiful [heart wrenching] story - contact her at ritamama23@yahoo.com <br />
<br />
There are many things happening around here ... registration for summertime thinking camp - which I am so excited about ... the kids so love being in the woods, exploring nature, building, creating, and so much more. This year, I am going to stretch myself [i think] and we just may do some fishing ... eeeek ... I can do this, right?<br />
If you know anyone who would love for their child to have a wonderful camp experience, let them know about Academic Illumination Camp ... always learning fun!<br />

<br />
I've been writing 'my babblings' for days ... I thought it was to share. I realized this morning that it was just my therapy. I may share some in the days to come.<br />
I spewed to you all, a bit ago, about a school that keeps me up at night.<br />
This morning I awoke with the knowingness, that as parents, we are holding the life keys.<br />
We trust - we hope - that the learning facility in which we entrust our little hearts will honor them and envelope them as they embark on their educational journey. xxoo<br />
<br />
I am writing a series of educational articles - and I really need/want your heart-felt responses, please.<br />
<br />
All children are supposed to go to school (although homeschooling is a delightful option) - if your child was not being honored for the person they are (and all they will be) would you stay and hope for the best? Or change it up today? And why? Thank you xxoo<br />
<br />
Until tomorrow xxooPatricia Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12305105144529823642noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405961056896193335.post-32021709847019697642015-11-21T14:41:00.000-08:002015-11-21T14:41:28.643-08:00today, I apologizeI haven't written my blog in so long ... I have so missed sharing ... though have been so in my own head that I wasn't sure I would make much sense. I'm trying to embrace this semi-retired 'thing'. Goal being to be able to work with children/families part time and spend time writing all of the 'stuff' I've been collecting up in this brain of mine. Send energy, please. <br />
<br />
Let's start with the wonderful. Camp here has been beautiful. Happy kids exploring nature and loving being together ... wonderful. I am so grateful that I am blessed with the opportunity to work with children and their families - building that true love for oneself and love for learning.<br />
<br />
Summer gardening was much better this year. Lots of veggies ... which I love. <br />
<br />
Today, my apology comes from the core of my soul. That may sound dramatic ... but, it isn't. It is real.<br />
During the last school year, I was privileged to work with Thunderbird Prep Academy in Cornelius, North Carolina. Patty Moreira was the managing director at the time. I had [and continue to have] such respect for her, and all that she stood for; that I went 'way' outside of my comfort zone and joined a traditional charter school. I loved their charter and I was moved by their mission statement. It was a dream come true for me. A large school [compared to my small private Montessori school], working inside of semi-traditional guidelines, working toward appreciating each child as an individual. Their 7 habits program and overall curriculum being a strength-based leadership program was so exciting for me. I recommended the school to many. I whole-heartedly believed in all that they were standing for.<br />
<br />
The first year of any school is a struggle. Many hiccups and so much to organize, create, and balance. Thunderbird had more of their share of those. And, In my opinion, Patty handled them all with professional grace. It is always difficult to please all of the people all of the time - and because of certain forces, Patty left her position as managing director. I was beyond sad. After a couple of months of 'sulking', I decided I would meet with the new interim director and see if returning in the fall would work for me. At first, I thought it might be okay ... quickly, for reasons I will talk about later ... I decided I could not return. The charter I was so 'married' to was not going to be the basic formula for this school year. So sad.<br />
<br />
I separated myself from the job situation ... though, how do you separate yourself from the beautiful children and their families that trusted you when you encouraged them to try this new, beautiful learning experience.? This school year has been great for some - beyond awful for others. The military-like environment is so far from the original charter. I understand [yet, i really dont] that some people like that type of environment for their children. Not me. Happy, comfortable, respected children ... learn and love to learn. <br />
<br />
Z is 6 [just 6], I have been connected to him and his family for years. He tells me that he doesn't like school anymore and he really can't talk about it. - he won't even read with me anymore ... because it is work. ugh. R is 6 as well. He has been reading at a 5th grade level for the past year+. Now, he will only read what he calls 'little kid books' because it makes him fit better. Silly, I may be - but I think of many of these kids each day ... wondering if their beautiful differences are appreciated and embraced. <br />
<br />
Hence, my apology. When I encouraged families to join this school, I was sure. I knew that there would be glitches in the first year ... but, I was sure that the heart and soul of all that it stood for would be more than beneficial to all children and would be embracing all families. In my educational/emotional opinion, this is no longer the situation. For that ... I am sorry. <br />
<br />
There are many things we don't know [at least me], but, what I do know ... our children deserve an educational environment that raises them up, encompasses/includes the belief system of their families, and offers them an educational experience that works within their personal learning system.<br />
<br />
Let's talk about education ... send me a post ... education has been my life ... our children are the most important. As parents, friends, etc ... we must stand up and make certain that our children are receiving the absolute best that they deserve.<br />
<br />
Always remembering ... it does take a village ... together, we can do it ... <br />
<br />

I haven’t posted much about my gardens this year. Mainly
because until this morning I thought my green thumb had vanished. Many of my
gardening friends have been enjoying fruits and vegetables from their gardens
for a month. Me ... a few tomatoes. During the night, something happened and
the kids and I couldn't be happier. More tomatoes … new cucumbers, peppers, zucchini,
yellow squash and spaghetti squash … all flowers turned to fruit during the
night. So exciting.</div>

It is a cloudy day here in the woods. I guess this weekend
is supposed to be stormy. Probably a good thing … I will have no excuse to not
finish [or at least work on] the many projects I have begun. One being the book
club book; I have not been reading as much as I had planned. I am having a time
trying to get into this book. Has anyone read <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Signature of all Things </i>by Elizabeth Gilbert? I love her, so I
feel certain I will become more engaged with it soon. Hope … Hope.</div>

We all enjoyed another wonderful week of camp. Our walks in
the woods have become a real highlight of the day. Everyone enjoys looking for
critters [we came upon a very cool turtle yesterday], collecting and counting
pine cones, trying to avoid walking through spider webs, enjoying the waterfall
while spying fish in the creek, and so much more … lizards and frogs are
definitely a fav for all. </div>

Lately, it seems that Facebook has been inundated with beautiful, positive quotes. I love them all. One day I will take the time to write my own down and create beauteous art around them. Until then, I will continue to borrow the lovely ones I see each day. The above quote fills my day. So fortunate, I am, to spend my days with blossoming young people ... filled with joy and a true sense of wonder.<br />
<br />
During the next couple of weeks, I will try to be in each moment [I will]; as summer camp time comes to an end. I am concerned for a couple of my little guys. Going into a large school environment ... not so good. As I think about that, many of my educational/life ideas/theories fill my head. So often I hear people say that kids need to be in a large environment in order to learn socializing skills. That really makes no sense, at all, to me. Learning communication, listening, respectfulness, etc. in a small nurturing environment where you have trust and are listened to ... wouldn't that be the best environment to instil these skills ... owning them with confidence and an appreciation for all???? That's definitely my take on it. Just a little bit of a rant today ... I'm trying to come up with a 'blog system' - so I know what I may be writing about each day. I don;'t just want to babble ... and I do feel I have much to share. I'm getting there. Suggestions always appreciated.<br />
<br />
Today, the kids were very excited to see that their newest tomato plant was covered with flowers. They have been so loving the gardens. Such a great way to teach nurturing. Check out the school Facebook page for many adorable summer pics. Academic Illumination Day School.<br />

SummerTime Thinking Camp, preparations for the upcoming school year, lots of writing and reading. I am excited about the new book club. We are reading The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert. Who read Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth? That one took awhile for the right time and mindset to come together for me - once it did, I loved it.<br />
And ... PatriciaA Wearable Art Fall Collection is almost ready ... Here is a little preview ... Open House info to come in a couple of days.<br />

<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">In the midst of transforming things here, I
did often wonder if children would revel in my idea of 'the little house on the
prairie' approach to life/academic learning. The first two weeks were all about
swimming, jumping and the ipad. And then, they realized all of the beauty [and
animals, reptiles, long sticks and mud] around them. The wonder in their eyes and
the beauty in their spirits … brings tons of joy, each and every day. Learning
through doing, experiencing things as though it was the first time ever … I
love it. </span><br />

I hope everyone is enjoying a fun-filled Summer. Here, in our woods, we are
having an amazing time.<br />
<br />
<br />
So much has changed since I last wrote. It has been a busy few months ...
preparing a camp/school environment in my home. I can't remember the last time
I had a plan of this magnitude which turned out exactly as I envisioned. Very
exciting. I am so grateful for all of my<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>wonderful friends. This definitely took a village. My small home in the
woods has been 'stretched and stretched' to envelope all aspects of life ...
together. Student-centered spaces, creative studio spaces, outside fun, gardening,
exercise and a wonderful variety of learning spots. The today result is
perfect: comfortable, beautiful, and full of happy energy. Peaceful.<br />

weeks of crazy winter weather kept many inside. It is so nice to be outside and

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Until I
began seeing a nutritionist [Carol Goodwin] I thought I knew about food and how
to eat healthy. I was so wrong. I am so grateful to Marley and Taylor for
setting this up for me. I love learning new things … and I am getting quite an
education. I’ve gained a pound a week … and plan to continue that for another
10 pounds. Becoming a more conscious eater is great, and has helped me to enjoy
food much more. And, as is true with many things … a bit of knowledge does make
people become pains in the ass … I am preaching about quality food and the
balance our<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>body needs … I’ll try to be
better – though, probably won't. </span></div>

everyone enjoyed a lovely weekend. I surely did. The weather was perfect here

seeing a nutritionist; trying to get this 60 year old body in perfect shape.
Today I begin my new meal plan. I am pretty excited about it. Eating isn’t one
of my favorite things to do, so easing into adding calories each day is a
challenge – one I have enjoyed during the past week. The goal is to gain 15
pounds in three months, while beginning a new exercise program. Gained two
pounds last week … I’m going to do this!</span></div>

bittersweet piece is that after the end of this school year I will no longer be
joined with The Lake Norman Learning Center. The interest in growing from
preschool to elementary school in the same space has not worked as we
hoped/anticipated. For as much as I love what I do each day, I have been

School may move to a new location and offer programs for elementary school,
wilderness camps, tutoring/enrichment, adult classes [computer science, jewelry
making, and more]; or I may decide to work in another school environment – or a
new career beginning??? I have given myself eight weeks to make this
life-changing decision. </span></div>

look so easy. I wrote everything down that he was doing … DJ, and I, are going
to start a new kind of practice. Lewis is a pretty easy pup, and Dodge is
getting surer of herself. DJ is perfect in many ways … just weighs as much as I
do, and thinks it’s okay to be ‘the walker’ of me rather than the other way
around. Please think good thoughts and send me energy. I met a lovely woman at
the store today. She had three children and a newly rescued dog in her car … she
was purchasing new dog things … they were all so excited to get their new
family member home. I so love that. If I had a larger home/yard, I am sure my
fam would include many more dogs … and a goat. I’ve wanted a goat since Caleb
spoke of ‘fainting goats’ a few years ago. </span></div>

I have been having such fun planting and watching things grow. We have had a wet Spring; which the plants all seem to be loving. I decided to return to pot gardens this year. The garden ground was too hard this year. Maybe [probably] it was because I was too lazy to chop away at it - and this system seems to be working well and I love the look of it. My friend, Judy, suggested I use magazines and newspapers to cover the ground and then cover with mulch. It looks great, and so far, only the spearmint is working its way through. Spearmint smells so beautiful - and it clearly can live through a chilly winter. The most exciting part of the garden thus far is that I have Roma tomatoes growing ... many of them. Roma tomatoes are my fav and I have yet to reap too many over the years. Trusting this year will be different. Can't wait to enjoy and share.<br />

Another cool thing that is sprouting is lavender ... I have not been great in the past with lavender ... the seeds are growing beautifully - along with the other herbs on the herb wall.<br />

I am so excited to have a rain barrel ... one of my Mother's Day gifts ... thank you, Taylor. It is all 'hooked up' now - Caleb put up the gutter and set it all up - we've had so much rain, the barrel has remained full. Love it, Love it.<br />

Another 'new' in the gardening realm - pallet garden. Last year Alison had some beautiful ones, so I decided to give it a try this year. The pic below is after just 1 week ... it is looking better now - will add more pics. It has to lay flat for a few weeks - then I have the perfect spot in which to stand it up. It has flowers, yellow squash, zucchini, and I recently added radishes to the bottom row. We shall see ...<br />

It was wonderful to spend a week with Taylor. She was home for Amy's and Adam's wedding last Saturday. My first time at officiating a wedding. What a gift - 'firsts' are often uncomfortable - this 'first' was amazing. To be able to be a part of such a beautiful day, with people I so love ... so grateful.<br />

thought worth repeating</span></b><span style="font-family: "Californian FB","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">: After working with younger children
during the past year and a half, for the first time in many years, I find
myself often shaking my head [that is a real understatement]. Little children
are sponges – they learn most of what they learn from what they see and hear.
I’d like to see people stop and pay more attention to that. They copy us … the
way we speak, the way we respect others, the way we take care of ourselves and
the planet. We are all teachers – and little ones follow our lead. </span></div>

quite accomplished here lately … though am really ready for a vacation. After
the person comes from the state education department to accredit the school on
the 26<sup>th</sup>, I will relax more. We have working hard to create our
newly joining of schools. It is always stressful when government agencies come
[like it or not, they are in charge], even though I know [or think] everything
is in order. You would think after doing this for so many years, it would get
easier – still makes me very nervous. Health Department came last week – we got
an A rating. Should ease my anxiousness – but, until it is all said and done …
send good energy, please … </span></div>

school year, for the first time in many years, I find myself often shaking my
head [that is a real understatement]. Little children are sponges – they learn
most of what they learn from what they see and hear. I’d like to see people
stop and pay more attention to that. They copy us … the way we speak, the way
we respect others, the way we take care of ourselves and the planet. We are all
teachers – and little ones follow our lead. </span></div>

hill in the woods. When I first moved here I couldn’t imagine how people slept
without the sounds of traffic in the background. Funny, really. Now I can’t
imagine how I did. I’d always thought of myself as a city person, and now that
I have been here in the peace and quiet, surrounded by nature, I guess I am
not. I love the city … though think living in it won’t be for me again. </span></div>
