      "I enjoy seeing their young faces light up with excitement when they learn something new or when they master a difficult task. I love listening to their conversations that tell me about what they did over the weekend or a fun time they had with friends. I love seeing all the towers and pictures they draw when they are giving complete freedom to create. I love to see them imitate me and use what they learned during free play, in their everyday conversations, and on the playground."
