LEARNING... "WHAT MATTERS MOST" In our degrading society, showing a child good values is not enough. Parents must show children opportunities to practice good, ethical values - that should be a foundation for learning "what matters most".

Ella_bike

This is a photo of my little girl, Ella as she goes through the motions of learning how to ride a bike . Faced with her fears, she rests in the thought that Dad is there to help her. And with that thought she gets her strength and her confidence. Here's to her dad and all the dads who take the time to be one!

My niece found a caterpillar while we were at the lake. She asked me about it's life-cycle, diet, life span and even it's migration habits. I was very impressed by her willingness to obtain information on her interests.

LEARNING

Quotes
We can learn nothing except by going from the known to the unknown.
Claude Bernard French Physiologist  (1813-1878);
Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over again, and you will grow stronger until you have accomplished a purpose ... not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember.
Anne Sullivan Macy Teacher  (1866-1936);
Ideas are only lethal if you suppress and don't discuss them. Ignorance is not bliss, it's stupid. Banning books shows you don't trust your kids to think and you don't trust yourself to be able to talk to them.
Anna Quindlen Journalist, Novelist  (born 1953);
A point of view can be a dangerous luxury when substituted for insight and understanding.
Marshall McLuhan Scholar, Philosopher, Theorist  (1911-1980);
We may go to the moon, but that's not very far. The greatest distance we have to cover still lies within us.
Charles De Gaulle 1st French President (Fifth Republic)  (1890-1970);
