Lesson 647: Color

Good evening, Readers.
It's been quite a week.


The school year has ended,
like a dandelion gone to seed,


while Erie is still in the yellow,

The students final reports were generated today.

We can't walk away from a blog post
titled Color
without giving some space for this.

Recently we found a wonderful pin on Pinterest that our followers loved too--an editorial photo of a dozen shades of crayons all labeled "flesh." Perfect, considering Crayola's revisited its skintone color palette.

At Patheos Family, come alongside Ashley Willis and share in the ups and downs of womanhood, marriage, and parenting with lots of laughing, passion, and Christian perspective.

Grades are due today
and if I was giving the world in general
a grade for Behavior,

We can do better.
We must.

Eloise
