Learning does extend outside a classroom and all through our lives. I really enjoyed reading about flexibility to make your grandson happy and part of the process. I hope you will share a final picture in a future slice.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12082337415906808358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760018118498685466.post-64867799931212587522013-10-01T21:44:03.047-04:002013-10-01T21:44:03.047-04:00Mistakes are part of learning, persistence is key-...Mistakes are part of learning, persistence is key--two big ideas I try to encourage, foster, inculcate, to the best of my ability in my classroom.

I love how your perspective layered on top of Franki's and allowed me to really absorb the truth. We CAN choose how to spend our time. I'm glad you are slicing today!<br />RuthRuth Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09691244229499772525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760018118498685466.post-76544077874563217082013-10-01T20:52:11.283-04:002013-10-01T20:52:11.283-04:00I only started slicing a little bit ago - welcome!...I only started slicing a little bit ago - welcome!

I admire anyone who can take knitting needles and yarn and create something useful and warm. I hope you will continue join in on Tuesdays so we can read how the blanket is going. Welcome Karen, I look forward to more of your writing. Congratulations on retiring!elsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348895330633879894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760018118498685466.post-44255023590483404282013-10-01T20:15:25.549-04:002013-10-01T20:15:25.549-04:00Welcome to slicing!I enjoyed reading your post abo...Welcome to slicing!I enjoyed reading your post about knitting and how so many other things in life connect with knitting. I also enjoy knitting. Nothing complicated, but it keeps my hands busy (so they do not go to my mouth)!Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027755562339582129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760018118498685466.post-6847421445374281932013-10-01T13:53:52.951-04:002013-10-01T13:53:52.951-04:00Welcome to the slice of life community!

Thanks for this post- I do not know how to knit, and my local library holds a "Knitting for Nitwits" every Tuesday night that I've had my eye on but have been too shy to go. I think your post may have inspired me to be brave! Have fun knitting and learning.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16432137187209722037noreply@blogger.com
