I am currently working with anticipation toward a landmark event for me. Come Febraury I will be beginning the first of the Community Education classes I am teaching here in our little suburb of Fridley. I was just informed that I have just four students for my "Beginning Digital Photography" course, which will be plenty for me.


I worked my way through college as a Preschool and Early Fives teacher (one of the many hats I wore at that time) and I loved teaching my little ones. I loves seeing their little minds light up as they understood something for the first time and to see their progress throughout the year. I was often rewarded for my efforts with a stick figure drawing of myself- or a handmade ornament at Christmastime. I doubt that my photography students will give me such earnest affirmations, and it is just a four week course, but I am very excited about the prospect of teaching again.
