Welcoming children
Paigeu commented today:
I have learned a lot from your blog about making a house a rich learning environment for children, while previously I had thought that my house should be decorated for MY and my fellow adults pleasure, which meant everything matching and according to my own tastes. I thought it was perfectly acceptable to allow my children only one room of the house but am slowly changing my opinion on all of that thanks to your posts on this subject.
Yes, that's the vision I'm trying to share. Jesus said, "And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me."
I think we need to appreciate that bringing up children isn't just about us helping them reach their potential, but allowing God to help us reach our own.
Love,
