I should have known better

Published by lapazfarm at 9:24 pm under Random Ramblings

You’d think by now I’d have learned.

But even after I don’t know how many years of doing this home learning thing  I still forget sometimes.

I forget that children are naturally curious.

I forget that creativity seeks an outlet like a seedling seeks the sun.

I forget that sometimes it is the simplest things that hold the most power to teach.

I forget that just living life is the greatest lesson of all.

Remind me of this next time I try to get too “schooly”, will you?

Pretty please?

    Yep! It sure was! And she is super pleased with herself, too!

    Remind me of this everyday as I beat myself up for not doing enough. I’m doing them a favor by getting out of the way, right?
    Thanks for the beautiful thoughts and photos, T. You blessed me today. :)

    only if you remind me, Theresa … why is it so hard for us to just let them live and learn and love on their own …….
