This quote reminds me how important it is to help my children be who they REALLY are and to value that.
"I'm going to make everything around me beautiful - that will be my life." - Elsie de Wolfe
"10 important things, that I'm still trying to learn" 1. All children are capable. 2. Presume competence, in every person that you meet. 3. Almost anything can be washed or repaired. 4. Move at the speed of kids. 5. There is no 'right' way to do anything. 6. Allow for exploration. 7. Find ways to experience abundance. 8. Allow yourself to learn from children. 9. Find your own way to play. 10. Don't plant your radishes too close together, or, the wisdom of thinning. * Text of #5: 5. "There is no 'right' way to do anything. Just as Reggio-inspired educators talk about the 100 languages of children, there are an infinite number of ways to parent and teach. What works for one family will sound ridiculous to another. So as you let your children express themselves in hundreds of ways, allow yourself the same grace."
how do we help our kids be themselves, even when who they are is very different from us?

Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love. {Hamilton Wright Mabie} *This has always been one of my favorite Christmas quotes. :-)
