If we can just stand back and listen to our children we are learning at least as much as they are, if not more. There is so much value in that. Good for you for re-thinking your internal script. This is something I'm constantly working on, too, but I like to think I'm making headway all the time. You’re so right, Rachel.

Yes! We think it's our role "teach" our children how to be in the world... and, often, I think we're best to let them teach US how to be in the world. They are really so very wise in their innocence, and we'd be smart to take lessons every day from their wisdom. Yes! Yes!
