This is a great picture book to share with students. Ann Lowe was a high fashion designer. Born in Alabama, she moved to NY, and despite racism, was one of the most acclaimed high couture designers in the US. She designed Jackie Kennedy’s wedding gown. She is an example of talent and resilience.

My friend share this post on Facebook. It’s sick that our kids have to think about this stuff. I’m a teacher and a member of the crisis intervention team in my building. Learning how to do tourniquets on little arms or packing wounds is not anything I thought I had to learn as a teacher!

I found a little kitten on the street two years ago. There is cat formula. The vet told me to feed her cat formula. She is now 2. This is her majesty princess Gigi! She still kneads my stomach when she wants to relax.
