Sending and Reading

I didn't do anything serious in sewing last week. I was very busy doing many errands to downtown (mostly our domestic stuff and tax...errgh!!) and made new report books for toddler class for this term.

Today I only have 2 jobs waiting...
Must send this to Jacquie after 1 week of pending (Sorry!)


















and have to finish this great book this afternoon. Randy, the writer is a cancer sufferer, but he wrote his book not about cancer or his suffering as a patient, but he
wrote his book based on the principles of celebrating the dreams we all strive to make realities. Very interesting and inspiring..

What a nice jobs to do.....

Intermezzo

This post is just an intermezzo in the middle of my quilting work.

I bought this inspiring book couple of days ago. At first, I planned to give it as a Christmas present for my boy’s Montessori teacher but I couldn’t stand to open the plastic cover and read it myself. Really it’s a good book for teacher or someone who’s working involved with kids. I speed up my reading and had finished it in an hour last night. I found many encouraging quotes and heartwarming stories in it.

I’ll share some of inspirational quotes here:
Every good teacher is a student of students. After all, if he is to venture to cross over to student’s side of experience, he should have some idea of where he is going and how to get there. –Wayne.R.Rood-

Abruptly, circumstances arrange themselves so that the commonplace becomes the significant and the routine memorable….Afterward you know that you have learned something valuable, something that can’t always describe exactly, or measured, or fully explained. But something. –Arthur Gordon-

In teching you can’t see the fruit of a day’s work. It’s invisible and remains so, maybe for twenty years. –Jaques Barquin-


Oh yes, one more thing.. I found funny notes from a kid on this book that loves his ‘very strict’ teacher. I thought before kids don’t like a strict teacher :)
