We Make It!

We made it into the Make Blog, and it's such a rush! I feel exhilarated!

Do you know about our other blog, Love & Rockets? Thats's where we wave our Geek Flag, where we share all that we imagine, invent, create, tinker, play, and make. It's where we hope to reach out to family and friends and inspire STEAM learning and teaching, between all the curious minds! Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math = STEAM, and those subjects are what we have a passion for. We express that passion through our involvement in the Maker Faire, with FIRST 2102 Team Paradox, with FIRST Robotics, and really, just our daily lives and interests. So, when a rising star needs a shout out, we answer the call. When a high school robotics team wants to build a giant robot, we open our garage. If an inspiring young man needs big room, and some paint, for a big idea, we like to lend a hand.

It means a great deal to us to be welcomed into the Maker community, because one of the nicest things about life is sharing, and Maker Faire, and the Maker Family, share with a generous and inspiring passion.

I am in the process of interviewing right now, trying to find a new job at another school. At the best places, I talk about Maker Faire and the incredible opportunities to join in, to emulate, to return to children the art and science of tinkering; you are torch-bearers, standard-bearers for this bestest ideal and real thing. I will let you know where I land....

Thank you, Jennifer.
I wish I could feel the way you see me... I really appreciate being recognized by you in such a great light.
Any news? I know whichever place picks you up... they're going to be lucky to have you!
