Lindsay Arnold instils confidence in her kids
Lindsay Arnold is determined to instil confidence in her children. The 31-year-old dancer - who has daughters Sage, four, and June, two, with husband Samuel Cusick - has revealed that she wants her children to follow their passions in life. Lindsay - who previously appeared on 'Dancing with the Stars' - told E! News: "I will never make my children do something they don't want to do. "The only thing I care about is them finding things that they're passionate about and help them feel confident in themselves. Because for me, dance is what made me who I am. And so, watching that happen for them is so special." Lindsay is determined to not put too much pressure on her kids, either. The TV star explained: "I think that's something that I've been very conscious to help them understand and to not put that pressure on them. And I know everyone in my family is on board with that. If anything, so far, I feel like it's been such a really cool propelling factor for them." Lindsay is relishing the experience of watching her kids grow and evolve. The dancer - who has been married to Samuel since 2015 - is also eager to cherish the time she's spending with her children. She said: "My favourite part is watching them grow. "I always tell people, you'll be in a phase and you're like, 'This is the best age. This is so fun.' And then they grow up, and you're like, 'Wait, no, this is so fun.' Every single phase of life with your kids is so special and unique. "You're not going to get that back. I feel like that is also probably the hardest is making sure that you're so present all the time even in the difficult moments because one day those won't be there anymore, and you'll miss them." Lindsay is even intent on enjoying the stresses and strains of motherhood. Asked what advice she'd offer to new moms, Lindsay replied: "Enjoy the sleepless nights. Enjoy the frustration, enjoy the hard, because one day you will look back and reminisce and wish for those sleepless nights again."

Orlando Bloom reveals adorable skill Bryce Dallas Howard taught his daughter Daisy
Orlando Bloom has revealed Bryce Dallas Howard taught his daughter to paint. The 48-year-old actor has described his Deep Cover co-star as a "angel" after she helped find an artistic spark in his four-year-old daughter Daisy, who he shares with fiancee Katy Perry. During a joint interview on Heart Breakfast, Bryce said: "I hope it is okay me sharing this? Orlando's beautiful family was there and I love his daughter. I like to watercolour..." The Pirates of the Caribbean star interjected: "She taught Daisy to watercolour. By the way, most people sit at the side of the set and are scrolling the 'gram or anything. "And she has set up this beautiful table... She's literally doing these beautiful watercolours, and Daisy would come over and go, 'What are you doing?' " Bryce added that "Daisy is amazing", before Orlando revealed the impact the sweet moment had. He said: "And this angel, she sets her up and she's got this watercolour. "And literally I went home and bought her a watercolour set, and she's been doing water painting, and she loves it now." He added: "Mother number one over there." Bryan - who called Daisy "marvellous" - described their interactions as one of the "great joys" of working on the Amazon Prime Video series. She said: "You're so sweet. But honestly it was one of the great joys of getting to do this was getting to hang out with Daisy. "It was just the best." Earlier this year, before her ongoing Lifetimes tour got underway, Orlando's partner Katy admitted she loves enjoying her own success through the eyes of their daughter. She told E! News: "It's like Christmas again when you get to see it through a child's eyes. There's so much light and joy and hope. "One thing I will be implementing is an earlier showtime because now I feel for all the mothers that I put through when I started my show at 9:15."

St. Joseph Museums displays local artist's work for Juneteenth
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) — A local artist's work is being featured in the St. Joseph Museums as part of the celebration leading up to Juneteenth. A gallery featuring the work of Afrocentric Artist T'Asia Coker can be found in the Black Archives section of the Museum. The 23-year-old law student at Missouri Western State University remembers when she started sketching at the age of 13. I was at my house, and I was so bored I was like, 'Okay, I'm just going to try to draw,' and then I really got in to sketching," Coker said. Then she found what she truly loved. "I liked sketching, but I just really love being able to express myself through color with different skin tones, complexions and backgrounds," Coker said. The inspiration came from the hair salon her mom has owned for nearly 12 years. "I just watched her do the hair of the people in my community and I get a lot of inspiration from them," she said. T'Asia's mother, Kristina Buchanan, owns Karamel Natural Hair Care at 1702 Olive St. in St. Joseph. T'Asia's first color art piece is still hanging inside the shop. "We just always thought that she was amazing," Buchanan said. "Her progression speaks more, I think, to her work ethic, her determination to keep perfecting her craft to always be the best that she can be, and I'm in awe of my daughter." What starts as a concept in T'Asia's head changes as she begins to work on a piece. She enjoys painting women in front of mystical backgrounds. "I'm a fantasy person to my core, so I like seeing art that depicts that," Coker said. The opportunity to showcase her art in the St. Joseph Museums came from a February event where her mother displayed her work. A Black Archives Committee member was in attendance and suggested her art be displayed in the museum. "My mom was buying picture frames and, you know, getting everything labeled," Coker said. "It came together really nice." Coker's work is on display now through Monday, June 30, to highlight Black artists and celebrate Juneteenth. "I've been watching her just do great things anyway, so every painting is my favorite," Buchanan said. "This is the beginning for her. A calendar featuring T'Asia's work will be on sale in September, and it will feature perforated pages so the art can be detached and kept. Copies of the calendar can be purchased at Karamel Natural Hair Care.
