All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom is not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life-learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out in the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.
Everything you need to know is in there somewhere!

Fun on the Farm!


Well, we lucked out and missed the raindrops and had a wonderful day at Griebel's Dairy Farm in Lucinda. We got to bottle feed the baby calves, meet some rabbits, kittens and goats and tour the milking parlor where a lot of the children had some really great questions for Susie Griebel-our fearless tour guide. We also enjoyed a picnic lunch in the sunshine in front of the farm house. It turned out to be a beautiful day and a great field trip. See you next year, Susie!
