I would spend my afternoons climbing trees and riding my bike. I didn t worry about time, bills or where I was going to find the money to fix my car. I want to live simply again. I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams, the imagination, mankind and making angels in the snow. I want to be six again.
Every year does seem to go by more quickly.
During February, when children seemed a bit more active and restless, I blithely said, The sap is rising. We are among the fortunate of the world to have such abundance and peace in our children s lives. We live better than princes and princesses in ancient times. Our student teacher has finished her work and the Method s student is almost done. We ve been learning about farms and will take a trip to a sheep farm soon.
