Life in the Pink Tower: They Are Watching You

I love that I felt like I was living in some of my favorite children's books this week.  You can see Grace is slightly annoyed I am bothering her by taking a picture as she washes clothes, a favorite nice weather activity.  

Not only was I reminded of the books but also some of my favorite quotes.  I'll leave you with them here.

Don't worry that children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you.  ~Robert Fulghum

Education is a natural process carried out by the child and is not acquired by listening to words but by experiences in the environment. 
-Maria Montessori

Be careful little feet where you go, because the little feet behind you are sure to follow.

Until then a few more favorites are 'Blueberries for Sal', 'A Bargain for Frances', all Eric Carle books, "Ruby's Wish', 'Harry the Dirty Dog', 'No Matter What' and 'How my Parents Learned to Eat'. Oh and 'Everywhere Babies'. My oldest is 13 so I have been discovering young adult fiction and love author Anne Rinaldi.
