MY "little delight" is to open my computer and find a new blog from my little sweetheart. I can see and hear everything as if I were there -- you are so visual.
Glad all is going well.

I just had to comment because the "captcha" word is mashenom. Now I don't know what you can do with that, but something should be done with it.
I'm saving my pennies, I swear to God I am.
Love to read your blog! Happiness abounds.
your words and observations are evocative and authentic.
The assumption that those being taught are open to being taught is, well, an assumption. One the amusing koans heard at the seminar this weekend was : I don't listen, I didn't listen in past and I won't listen in the future and I am not listening now!! - Listening is a skill and the chattering monkeys inside all our minds when young or old divert the attention of the listener. Knowing that as a teacher is a tool.
