I'm tickled that kids got so into the moment. I might even have to do some winter seining just to keep up :) Think of the potential joy we steal from kids when we don't give them opportunities to get dirty on their own volition. This MudMomma is smilin'.... We should find a way to connect with Richard Louv's [u]Last Child in the Woods[/u]. You know he's from Olathe? Weird how things work out sometimes.... [i]Last Child in the Woods: Saving our Children from Nature Deficit Disorder has spurred a national dialogue among educators, health professionals, parents, developers and conservationists. This is a book that will change the way you think about your future and the future of your children.
