Thanks for posting that article, Liland.One of the great joys that I had teaching children was their innocence.. at least the kids up to six or seven years old. They see the world differently and when I was teaching them about nature, I wasnt sure who was teaching whom. My approach to teaching was always trying to teach kids how to see. In a way, it didn't make any difference what the class was... how to really SEE birds, or trees or farm animals. Unless we are dilligent, we start to lose our ability to see about that mental age of six or seven. Cynicism starts to grow, a lack of trust and self protection takes root in our hearts and we lose that sense of wonder that little kids have. For me, the only way to rekindle that ability to truly see is through the eyes of faith.

Thanks for sharing this...
