Day 299: Halloween Art


At Walker Station every class is supposed to design and decorate a pumpkin. They started this tradition last year and I think it creates the cutest Halloween decorations. These are just a few of the pumpkins that decorated the hallway! Arthur is by far my favorite, but they were ALL adorable! This is just another one of those things that makes me want to be a teacher that much more! Don't all of these pumpkins inspire you to get in touch with your creative side? :) Today was a pretty bright day, however even the brightest days can have a few grey clouds. This morning, I realized the power of words. Words can lift us up, drag us down, wound us deeply or heal our hearts. Words have the power to break confidences, build lifelong friendships or start wars. Words can make us or break us. Have you been building others up with your words or tearing them down?
