She is finally calling them deer and not "puppies". She loves the birds at my feeders. It is wonderful that we can share out love of nature with them. <br /><br />Your grands will cherish this post!<br />Hugs!Ms. Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296728970210715746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7128708840799747320.post-76651751769753055262009-04-28T10:08:00.000-05:002009-04-28T10:08:00.000-05:00This is a beautiful post, Renie.

I really enjoyed reading it and imagining the beauty you describe.<br /><br />I am creating a curriculum right now for a group of children in a very poor section of the Bronx. (A school I taught at last year.) These children have little or no opportunity to get close to nature, so the curriculum is on the green spaces in the Bronx. (There are 7000 acres of park in the Bronx!) It is so amazing to take these children into the woods and give them an opportunity to closely observe trees, birds, rivers, and natural wildlife. It is all so exotic to them, as they are only used to seeing buildings and sidewalks. They are great kids and I know they are deeply affected by their daily surroundings. Bringing them out of their neighborhood and into nature has really opened up their world! <br /><br />Have a great day!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13069417648988456196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7128708840799747320.post-28016595038240747672009-04-26T22:26:00.000-05:002009-04-26T22:26:00.000-05:00You are a wonderful grandma that is making lasting...You are a wonderful grandma that is making lasting and meaningful memories that they will never forget!!

I have also taught the boys about rural living since the time they were very young.
