Don't Stop the Mind, Get a Blind!
Hey Ya'll,
A friend recently sent me a photo of Mrs. Scotts Third grade class of which I was part. In recalling those days I remember the ability to see outdoors. Then in frustration I recalled later days in High School where the windows had been eliminated. Some say for expense some say for the purpose reduction in day dreaming and so that the student would pay attention to the instructor. Well, in my eyes the day dreaming is, was and always will be a part of life in class that cannot and maybe should not be closed off. Mrs. Scott certainly had no problem getting the attention of all in her class and we did not feel so closed and locked in as most pupils today.
While I admit I did not go into the blind and shade business due to a bewildered lack of light in the senior year, I will say......LET THE LIGHT IN!!! Not only do we desire light in our lives, but our children do as well. Day dreaming through a 2" window blind is not going reduce a childs life to poverty.
Faux 2" blinds in express whites or even the Royal Trends stained are perfect for reducing a blinding outside light and yet just right to allow some of natures rays to enter and sooth the room . I mention fauxwood blinds for the school atomosphere because faux window decor can take a liitle more punishment than the exclusive wood blind regardless of 2" or 2 1/1" slat size.
Kids...I trying here...I'm on your side. You want and need the light. I want you to have it, but Hey! when Mrs. Scott slaps your hand It IS Time to WAKE UP! You'll know when.
Blessings and Let the LIGHT IN!
