"to steal a million" with Audrey Hepburn
I really want to keep up on this blog, but my days seem to be way too full.
So here and there I will spurt out things that have been going on :)
It is so wonderful to come home on a friday from work to a completely CLEAN house!?
yup... that's my husband :D
Magda Gerber IS brilliant, and I want to read all her books and watch all her VHS.
Work hasn't been work, it's been a career. a passion. an excitement. a refreshing glimpse of change I can make happen within these little people's lives. they know so much, we just have to support them, facilitate them, encourage them, give them positive reinforcement and never tell them no. It feels as if I have learned a WHOLE new language... completely changing how i talk to these little people that will help them develop, learn, problem solve on their own and become confident individuals. They have too many voices in this society squelching their creativity, ability to learn and confidence in who they are... I will be that voice that tells them the opposite and delight in them as they grow.
That is only a piece of what I have been feeling ever since I started working... there is so much more. I need to find the time to write it all on paper to process this season. I don't ever want to forget how it feels to be a new teacher... it will help me in the future, and help those around me who walk where I have walked.
I just want to create while the music plays, the reading intrigues, my heart comes alive and my thoughts consume me... create all these moments that have been inside just waiting to explode... as the little ones become free in the play they engage in... oh how deeply they are engaged and how many things they are learning when they go there... I could go on for days about how much they learn... if only adults could go there still... and realize it is the only way to grow, the work sheets printed out coloring sheets only restrict the childrens abilities in SO many ways... I could go on for days.
