Who teaches the teacher? Part Three: My Youngest

Some things I have learned from my youngest...

...don't blink.
...laugh with gusto.
...try anything once.
...learn how to entertain yourself.
...hold someone's hand when you need a little support.
...sound effects make life more fun.
...pay attention to the details.
...pat people on the back when you give them a hug.
...you're never too young to be a valued member of society.
...there's always room in your heart for the people who are important in your children's lives.


The heart of the mother is the schoolroom of the child. One mother is more than a hundred schoolmasters. ~G. Wordsworth
