Passion, Motivation, and Wisdom

The following quotes speak volumes to me about passion, motivation, and wisdom.  They inspire me to continue on my journey in Early Childhood Education so that I may be a blessing to others.

"Education is a Civil Rights issue.  All children have the right to an optimum childhood education and life experiences...an education that opens up the world and leaves you ready with the necessary tools for life."
Renatta M. Cooper

"It is my passion to make sure that all children are taught in environments and in ways that nurture them to grow to their fullest ability."

Communicating Through Pictures

My neice Peyton will be moving into a new house in two weeks.  She is very excited about her new home.  She made a picture to tell me all about it.  I just love the creativity that children show in their pictures.
