When people say, "You must have a lot of patience to work with children." I think, I don't. I think of children as people who do not have a lot of experience with life. I chose to be that person who is there to help them gain knowledge about the world around them. It is not patience but understanding and compassion that I have. Now when people say, "You must have a lot of energy to work with children." I think, "Oh man yes I do!" That energy is fuelled by the enthusiasm of the children I work with every day.
