I learned how to weave a cedar bracelet today.

Loved it. Many thanks to the knowledge keepers who shared this teaching with me.

I see these two friends out and about almost every morning when I get the dogs out.

They are always laughing and enthusiastically say good morning.

A special young person in my life has challenges with math. And has internalized messages about “not being smart enough for xyz”

And I just saw this in one of their cookbooks…

Real time, real life math.

📣Shout out to the teachers and parents out there that help all kids learn real skills.
