Monday Monday...la la...la la la la...

So today I spent the day at my children's school doing none other than....pottery demo's. I had approached the art teacher of the lower school last year about coming in and doing this and we just now got it together to bring me in.
The school is equipped with 6 very nice Brent wheels and a kiln room,but no one uses any of it that much. So... as always me, trying to think business wise I thought that if I did a demo maybe a summer camp job could come out of the whole thing and the equipment would get some use. ( We'll see! )
As for the day, it was a lot of fun and the kids had a blast seeing me throw and then I allowed them to each try centering. The art teacher was equally as great in letting me do whatever I wanted and I think in the spring I'll come back and actually do some sort of project with one of the grades. Today I had the 4 yr. olds ( complete with my two pistols), the 4th grades and my sons 1st grade class. My kids where in heaven having mommy around for the day and showing her off! I'll be back there tomorrow doing the same thing for the kindergartners and 5th grade students. I have to say after a day a teaching I didn't go near my studio tonight. I"m whipped! I have no idea how mom's work 9 - 5 jobs and have the energy to spend time with there kids plus do house stuff. I am truly amazed at anyone who does this.
