Out of the mouths of babes.....

While working as a school nurse in Wapato, I asked a little girl if she spoke Spanish. She replied, "No Mrs. Fast, I speak Human." What she was trying to say was that she spoke English but the word just wasn't there. I, however, love what she actually said. We all speak Human don't we?

I want to share a podcast with you entitled The Inner Lives of Children. It is an interview with Dr. Robert Coles. The description follows.

Psychiatrist Robert Coles has spent his career exploring the inner lives of children. He says children are witnesses to the fullness of our humanity; they are keenly attuned to the darkness as well as the light of life; and they can teach us about living honestly, searchingly and courageously if we let them.
