Theater magic, prop making at it’s best. This newly metallic box is going to lock up dangerous books. #dramama #theatermom #diyprops #theatermagic #backstagemom #middleschooltheaterlife #dangerousbooks

Another jellyfish for the student store at the school I work at. I love their reaction when they buy them with the scholar dollars they earn for doing good. 🧶#Kindnessmatters #crochet #alltheyarn #crochetkindness #elementaryschoollife

My daughter had a very planning meeting for Girl Scouts at a local library. As I waited for her I witnessed a kids’ craft group, people of all ages using computers and printing stuff out, a mother reading to her young child and people using the space to study. Libraries mean so much to communities!

After working 8 years in an elementary school, I got to go on my first field trip. It was a fabulous visit to the @seattleaquarium . Best part was helping a student who was nervous about touching a sea anemone, overcome his nerves and the look on his face when he touched it was everything!!!

My most recent jellyfish for my school store. The beads glow in the dark! #geekymomcrafts #geekymomadventures #elementaryschoollife #jellyfish #crochetersofbluesky #crochetjellyfish 🧶

The only photo I took at ECCC 2025. Boy child was basically there because it’s become a family tradition. He was pretty excited the Trident is the actual one the players use and he got to hold it!#tridentsup #emeraldcitycomicon2025 #whereiroot #baseballmomlife #truetotheblue #seausrise #eccc2025

I saw these on sale at party city yesterday. It crossed my mind that envelopes filled with this might be just what 47’s regime needs…

Is officially “my youngest child knows more artists than I do at the Grammys” old.

Do a small random act of kindness for someone. ☺️

• Open a door. 🚪
• Help a neighbor. 🏘️
• Say “hello” with a smile and wave 👋.
• Let someone “cut” in front of you in line.
• Give someone the last slice. 🍕

Little things go a long way. 🌄

Help!! My aunt who taught me to knit passed this fall. I inherited some of her WIPs. Any idea how to translate her note? 🧶

"I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more."
- Anne Frank

Lots of adventures today and Bolt joined us for the morning adventures. Isn’t he the cutest? #Bolttherescuedog

I was so excited for this. I’ve yet to hear someone who enjoyed it…

I just did something technology wise that my teen couldn’t figure out!

I've seen some wondering why a person married to a US citizen might not be documented.

It took me 4 years & over $1500 to get residency-and I'm a 🇨🇦 married to a 🇺🇸.

In my experience, it's incredibly hard for someone whose first language isn't English and can't spare the $$ to navigate this process.

Questions about getting an abortion? The NYC Abortion Access Hub is open to everyone.

Brilliant.

I’m not at all surprised. 💙

What is bringing you hope today?

I had no idea but I'm definitely going to start doing that.

I feel like no one told me about floaters as an aging thing… it might be the most annoying part so far!

Finishing up last year’s stash. Girl Scout Cookies always make everything better.

This is what the room where Donald Trump is being inaugurated looked like on January 6, 2021.

The oligarchs cling to MLK’s “I Have a Dream” speech—because dreams aren’t a threat.

They hide this—we will have to pay the bill while they keep TAKING and distracting us with HATE for each other so that we won’t notice.

They don’t want you to know about Martin Luther King’s “One Penny” speech…

The leader who is in my heart and thoughts today…
