Hey Craig,
I just posted an earlier message before reading all the notes.
i would like to add.....
I am pretty tired of hearing- men aren't able to be nurturing to all children, blah, blah....
Five bucks, a game of bowling, and a pack of smokes says I can out nurture Judy!
sorry, I let my insensitive masculine side take over....
But seriously, I have met some very insensitive women who wouldn't stop and get down on a childs level and listen to their nightmares, or ask about the child's dreams, hopes or worries. I consider myself a darn efficient wipper of noses and bottoms. I also consider myself a professional having the knowledge of, and appreciation for, the social - emotional development of preschoolers, which makes me concious of my need to nurture my students and not be affraid to hug them every day they walk through that door!
so there judy.

jamie from California
