In early January, I chaperoned my third grade class to El Pueblo Downtown. We learned about the early settlers of Los Angeles. Unfortunately, it started to pour so the fieldtrip had to end early. On the way back, one of my kids asked me what will we being doing for the rest of the day when we get back to school. I told them that it should be art time. The students started to whine. Highlight of the trip was one of girl's responses to the students' complaints. In her sweet gentle voice, Laura says..." What's wrong with art? I love art...you can never mess up... like in life....life is like art." This is one of the most profound and inspiring statement I have heard in awhile. Couldn't help but smile. =)
