#SaturdaySmiles!

"Be cool. Be Smart. Be patient. Be-you-tiful." 

I say that with my daughter every chance I get. It's mad corny, I know. But whatever, she's two! She colors kangaroos blue and announces her farts in the bathtub, what does she know!? As far as she's concerned, I'm just as profound as I am dang hilarious! She's great, and I can't walk a step without people stopping to tell me how cute she is. Which, I totally get, because she's adorable af (duh!), but it's my hope that I can foster characteristics in her beyond that. It's wild important for her to know that her brain-melting beautyosity is only secondary to all of her other amazing qualities. On Saturday, I got a chance to work with a number of young girls who modeled exactly that...and I'd be hella lucky if my little pig would grow to exhibit the traits of any one of them little lady G's.

I was asked by GLOW Academy for Girls to be a guest teacher at their Learning Circle Orientation; an annual event, held this year at DREAMS art center in Wilmington, NC. Below is a few pictures taken of my new little homies being way better than me at everything:
