After a slow start, our amaryllis is finally sprouting up! It started at 10 cubes and we are now at 13.
Forever In My Heart
Although I'm not their mother I care for them each day, I cuddle, sing and read to them And watch them as they play. I see each new accomplishment, I help them grow and learn. I understand their language, I listen with concern. They come to me for comfort, And I kiss away their tears. They proudly show their work to me, I give the loudest cheers! No, I 'm not their mother, But my role is just as strong. I nurture them and keep them safe, Though maybe not for long. I know someday the time will come, When we will have to part. But I know each child I cared for, Is forever in my heart! Every year at this time I like to introduce the children to different people around the world’s traditions for the holidays. We talked about Hanukkah today and read that during Hanukkah Jewish people light candles on a menorah in the evening. I found some friends who chose to do some glue art. Meeting of the minds. Painting with water.

Shannon Davis- Family Child Care provider"Family child care is not babysitting. It's not comparable to any child care center. It's families, in relationships with a professional care provider in an environment that becomes, by design, a second home and a whole bunch of people partnering, trusting, caring and educating each other."
