One day an elephant saw a hummingbird lying on its back with its tiny feet up in the air."What are you doing?" asked the elephant.The hummingbird replied, "I heard that the sky might fall today, and so I am ready to help hold it up, should it fall.”The elephant laughed cruelly. “Do you really think,” he said, "that those tiny feet could help hold up the sky?”The hummingbird kept his feet up in the air, intent on his purpose, as he replied, "Not alone. But each must do what he can. And this is what I can do.”
– A Chinese Folktale
No child should feel alone.
Half the Sky Foundation is saving little girls in China,
giving them a chance to hold up their half of the sky.
Great poem!!! Good luck in your next class!!!!

Tammra,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your post each week. I found myself identifying with each post that I read. It is clear to me that you truly have a love for children. Looking at the pictures on your blog I can see that you have a love for family as well. I think that the love you have carries on into the way that you (we) treat the children that we care for. Thank you for sharing with us all. Good luck with the remaining time you have at the university. I hope that our paths will cross again.
I have enjoyed reading your blogs. You have had a lot of vauable information. I wish you the much success on your journey in the master's program. Good luck!
