A little bit about me

Hi Readers:

Dr. Dartt, I hope a baby pic counts. That is me as a VERY young child lol. If not, let me know and I will change it.

My favorite childhood book is "Cat in the Hat" by Dr. Seuss. I would say "Green Eggs and Ham" is my second favorite by the same author. I love those books because they always make me smile. They have a rhythm to the story and the whole story rhymes! How cool! They are poetic in a sense and I'm the same way. Although the stories are fictious, they teach valuable lessons, esp. "Green Eggs and Ham". Don't knock it until you try it!

I'm just going to flow and talk about what fuels my passion in the early childhood field. As some of you know, I just love children. And for some reason, they love me too. :-) I think it is the reciprocity that really fuels my passion. Although some kids are not as friendly as others, it brings me much joy when a child is happy to see me just because. A lot of my friends have children and all of them love me. Mia, who is so funny, saw me get off the bus and head toward her house the other day. Her mom, who is my friend, said that she yelled out to her and said "Brandee is here!" and she was very excited! She gave me a hard time when I asked for a hug (lol) but it felt good to know that she not only knew who I was, but was happy to see me coming to her home. I felt really special...

So with that being said, just from the interaction with young children on a social level, makes me want to work with them on the education level. If I have an impact on children just by being in their lives, then I want to use that as an opportunity to teach them everything I know. Children from ages 0-5yrs old seem to connect with me with no problem. So while I have their attention, I might as well make an impact that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.

I hope you enjoyed reading my post. Feel to say what you want...
