In 7th grade, I decided to make a 3-d glass model of the Louvre for my French class project. My mom drove me to the hardware store to buy the sheets of glass that I would use to make this pyramid. I bought black tape as well so I could line the sides of the … Continue reading glimpses of paris

paris in full bloom
I must admit that Paris in June is pretty splendid with sunny weather, flowers in full bloom, and sunlight until 10pm.

Artists armed with sharp pencils, line the cobble stone streets, … Continue reading slice of life challenge day #6: a baby in paris
Hold Fast to Dreams
Dreams --Langston Hughes Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow. I read this poem to my students today. It reminded of something I watched on TV yesterday. I was watching a … Continue reading Hold Fast to Dreams
