“Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it”-Albert Einstein
I think after working with children for quite sometime I have realized that maybe we should age in reverse. This came to me as I spent the morning with this wonderful family. The littlest man just turned one and his eyes, soul and sense of wonder displayed the glorious first year where everything is new, fresh and ready to be explored. Included in our time was a 3 year old big brother who helped me navigate his house, engaged me in fun and interesting conversation while I captured both of their stunning blue eyes, delicate features and enjoyable personalities.
I concur with Mr. Einstein, in a sense, that perhaps wisdom is a product of a lifelong unschooling and remembering what we started with. Those glorious first years when everything was a discovery and anything could be where your imagination could take you, including a stack of yellow lego blocks, that, just happen to be mom's princess hat.
