A reminder for me that each child develops at his or her own personal rate of growth (one’s own inner clock) and that by rushing kids and stuffing them with more and more information we often deprive them of the space and energy necessary to develop in a harmonious and healthy manner. Less is more!

There go the grownups
To the office,
To the store.
Subway rush
Traffic crush;
Hurry, scurry,
Worry, flurry
