I love the first quote you included. This is so true. If working and advocating for children and families was centered around making money there wouldn't be anyone working in the field of early childhood education. One who chooses the to work as an ECE professional must be dedicated to improving the lives of children.
ReplyDeleteI love your second quote! That quote means so much because I am always saying how children are the most innocent people in the world and how you should never blame a child!
ReplyDeleteI like all the quotes, they are so inspiring. Most of them are talking about helping others which is the major key in this field.
