Drawing Tutorial

The other day I was hanging out with my cousin and she asked if I wanted to learn how to draw a wolf. I agreed and I thought it was really cool, so I wanted to share it with you:

Step 1: draw a circle for a head then add a triangular ear

Step 2: erase under the ear and where the neck would be. Then add a line

Step 3: add a curvy line and a line under that then a nose

Step 4: add a neck and detail the ear then add another ear behind that.

Step 5: add any kind of eyes and brows then teeth are optional

Step 6: now you can add any kind of personalization and shading.

I hope you liked this!!!!

Finding Joy in the Simple Things

It's my son Tannen's turn to post but if it's alright I'd like to share something that he has taught me! This is one of the trucks Tannen got for his 6th birthday last week. This kid has been obsessed with vehicles since he was old enough to know what they were. If there is a vehicle around he will lose all focus on anything else. He will sit quietly and look through a Car and Driver Magazine page by page soaking in every car! Everyone that knows him knows about this obsession. Any type of vehicle from sports car to garbage truck brings him complete joy and it shows in his face, in his actions, and his words. I am so grateful for this little one who teaches me to truly find joy in the simple things!

Sunny Sunflowers

Josh and I teach a group of 7-8 year old boys. At our last activity, we learned about helpful and unhelpful thoughts. We called helpful thoughts sunny sunflowers and unhelpful thoughts worry weeds. When unhelpful thoughts like, “I can’t do it” or “I’m stupid” or “Nobody likes me” enter your mind, pull them and plant sunny sunflowers! A few of my favorite sunny sunflower thoughts are: “I can do anything I put my mind to”, “I am enough”, “All of my problems have solutions”, “ I am perfect just the way I am”. We planted sunflowers and strawberries in little pots and had pudding dirt cups with Oreos and worms for dessert. It was a lot of fun and such a good lesson to learn! Remember you are loved! You can get through anything, and when things do get hard, ask for help! 😊 “The only tyrant I accept in this world is the ‘still small voice’within.”-Gandhi -S...

"Music washes away the dust from everyday life" - Berthold Auerbach

Music has always been a major part of my life. In the car, we listen to awesome 80's songs and on Sundays we listen to hymns. There are songs that we all like and songs that just make us cringe. Music runs in the family. My mom was in a choir when she was younger and my younger brothers are doing guitar and piano. My dad, however, is just an appreciator of music (mostly 80s rock 😀). I currently play three instruments, the piano, cello, and the organ. I've been playing piano since I was eight and this built the foundation of my love for music. I've been playing the cello since sixth grade. Just recently I've been practicing hymns on the organ. I've been able to do so much with my musical abilities. For example, I won a superior rating for cello solo and Ensemble at school and a district. I've been in a select Orchestra for district. I've played the piano and cello in church and so on. I love using my musical abilities to bless people's lives and brin...
