Dancing into a New Week

Ballet Slippers Watercolor 8×10

Dancing into a New Week.

Happy Sunday.
Happy New Week.

Dance into it like you mean it –
whether pirouetting, plieing, or pencheing.

No matter your move,
make it meaningful.  Make the most of it!

Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

  1. A beautiful watercolor and thoughts from beautiful you! Once again your inner ballerina is coming out to dance…the steps are unimportant, only the dancing is! “Allow yourself to trust joy and embrace it. You will find you dance with everything.” – Ralph W. Emerson. So, let the dancing begin. You will have to wait for The Toddler Art Critic’s take when he dances in tomorrow. Thank-you! P.S. Happy Earth Day!

  3. I know that you are breathlessly waiting for the Toddler Art Critic’s critique…”My Jodi painted her feet Happy Dancing in the sky and they are cute shoes! I love all the pretty colors.” Benjamin and I wish you a happy first day at your new job. He has placed a kiss on your nose to send you on your way. He wants you to know : “My Mommy has a new job too!” Thank-you!
