I'm so glad he did. I think the 8 weeks I spent with twenty 4 & 5 year olds was infinitely better because of it.

This quote is Goethe, the German philosopher. Please, set my soul at ease by correcting how you've cited this quote (I'm also a librarian :) ) Cheers.

I don't know why I rejected it for so long (thought it was just another blogosphere trend) and then my husband picked it up to read in an airport. Every five pages I had to close it and sit back in my seat to tattoo something on the insides of my own eyelids. It really is scary how much control we fail to exercise every day...I'm trying to learn how to wield myself more powerfully for the good.

Yes, especially, with children. But taking the deep breath or the higher road does not automatically mean that every relationship will improve. Sometimes you have to walk away. It takes two. But if you do act according to this you can at least know you tried. Yes, sometimes. Yes, especially, with children.

I work with grad students in a lab, and they annoy and frustrate me to no end some days, and it's always my reaction that determines how problems get resolved. It's hard work to be an instrument of inspiration! (The Happiness Project is a wonderful book!) Every. Day.
