About Hodgepodgemom

Tricia faces a daily dose of chaos homeschooling five children. The biggest lesson she’s learned? At the end of the day – when the dishes are put away and the children are tucked in bed – truly what matters is each child’s relationship with the Lord. Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.

    Our two youngest boys (8 and 7 this month) enjoy Nana’s pastel lessons. They have been asking for a specific subject though and I don’t see it on your list. Would it be possible for Nana to teach a lesson on how to draw popcorn? I know, sounds odd, but I think it would go nicely with our hot chocolate pics.

    Thanks for a great blog. I get excited when I see it in my inbox.

      I’m thrilled your boys enjoy Nana’s pastel lessons. We are all for taking requests. Thanks for the suggestion! Can’t promise when but I will surely talk to Nana about it. Popcorn does sound fun to create with pastels. Thanks Lacey!
