November 20 is National Child Day in Canada but I was able
to participate in celebrations for this day at work today. It was really fun
doing a play for the children and singing songs. I am grateful for the joy that
children bring into my life. I am grateful for their meekness, humility and
innocence. I am grateful for the cute things that they say and do and the fact
that they are cute. It is important that adults nurture the children in their
lives and let them be children but at the same time guide them in growing into
future leaders and caregivers.
Children have rights but are not able to ensure that those
rights are followed through. It is therefore important that adults ensure that
children’s rights are protected and that their needs are met. National child
day also recognizes the rights of children. Click on the link to read about
what those rights are. You can also download a colouring book for your children that helps them to know what their rights are (in terms they can understand).
Here are my favourite children:
I don’t see them nearly as often as I would like but I love
every opportunity I have to spend time with them and to talk to them over the
phone or through the computer. We actually have a lot in common. J
Who are the special children in your life?
