Motherhood
Former educator, toddler parent, and Paso Robles resident. Motherhood. It’s a whirlwind. It is tiny feet, nap times, and potty training. It’s teaching our kids to be helpful while allowing for independence. It is showing them that getting dirty is fun and messes can be cleaned up. It is demonstrating the importance of being true to yourself as long as you aren’t hurting anyone, and allowing them to walk their own path while encouraging them to try something new. It is comforting them when they learn that too much of a good thing usually leads to a tummy ache and that rest is necessary. It is assuring them that you are always there anytime they need help.

The vehicles of Templeton
The Templeton Museum is lucky to be home to several operating vehicles with generational ties to the small town. One of these vehicles is hard to miss when it has an outing on Main Street — the 1932 school bus. The completely refurbished bus served its local students until 1949. Transforming from a carrier of children to a hauler of irrigation pipes, it continued to contribute to the community’s needs, albeit in a different capacity.
