Acceptance (Update)

The stirrings of a new day in early March. Snow on the ground but the birds are singing fiercely. I think that Spring might be on its way.

Talking to my family this morning, planning the upcoming reunion, which is happening for us all next week in far away lands, I become excited. 

Renewal is in the air.

Update:

Transcribed recordings of things I said into my IPhone Voice Memos App. early this morning as I drove to work – sun shining, snow melting, and roads clear of traffic:

Early childhood education for me is not about whether I am a good parent or not – no! – it is about what I know now after experience and education – what is good for very young children. That's what it's about – oh yeah!

Well, I once had a dream. I dreamed I'd take my son and me and we'd go to America and make a new life – full of hope and promise and opportunity. [sigh] – and I think the dream has been realised for me … The dreams I had for me and my child are just for me. My child has to make his own dreams.
