It is who I am. So many of the chldren I work with are ignored or taunted because they don't speak in the "normal" way as society expects and they have few rights about their own lives - it is my job to listen to them and make sure they are heard by the adults in their lives as best I can. Giving them space to be themselves and have an imagination - what a fantastic gift.Merrilynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12049039624842804643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16994563.post-52886837852506899832007-08-10T06:10:00.000-07:002007-08-10T06:10:00.000-07:00That is a beautiful post, Diane!
