Kids often say the most amazing things. Especially toddlers who are just starting to talk. One of my most favorite things that my son seems to say when I am scolding him is hello. I say to him " now son you know your not suppose to be doing that because of xyz". He will than respond to me by saying HI! He will say it a few times. I love this!
If I had to choose a children's book that I love, it would be quite difficult to narrow it down, however If I had to do so I could. I would totally say the I love you forever, and I like you for always book. Although I changed the words to forever and every my baby you will be. What I really marvel in, is the ability for a child to learn so early on. However one of the most moving things that I have just recently realized was that It takes a community to raise a child. The support system factor is really and important one. There are many people who don't have a support system, and those that do may not have a healthy one. I have come to realize that it's not only important to have a support system, however it is important to have a healthy one. We are not perfect beings however we must acknowledge that fact that we or forever changing and forever growing into better people. There is no such thing as a perfect person or parent. God is the only perfect one. However there is such a thing as stability, and normal wholesome living. Life does obtain it's problems and challenges. However there is a format that one can look up to and follow. This is why community programs and activities are so important for children. It really helps define them. Not only does help the child, however it helps the parent. This is what makes that statement true, that it takes a community to raise a child. Churches, and non profit organizations need to recognize the importance of the child activities that they provide within there reach of there community. We often neglect and forget the Early Childhood division of our non profit organizations.
