for some reason these images made me want to re-read 'you are your child's first teacher' by rahima baldwin. i first checked it out from the library when elodie was a year old and it left a strong impression on me. children have such different needs and ways of learning based on their age but you can see their spirit as the thread that runs through every year of their life. what a beautiful metamorphosis.
