1: The way the kids are bursting with pride when you sit down to read with with them, ready to show off their skills. And if not, the way they get proud when they do it.
2: How their eyes light up when you tell them what you like about their reading.
3: The probing questions out of the blue, like: "Do you have any pets? What are you making for lunch?"
4: Overhearing your daughter repeatedly telling her friends, "That's my Mom. Her name is Catherine. My Grandma, her mom, used to sing to her when she was little".
5: All those adorable eyes that smile at you and say, "we're glad you're here".
6: Everything I ever needed to know, I learned in Kindergarten. Remember Robert Fulghum? "...Share. Clean up after yourself. Learn some and think some. And draw and paint and sing and dance. And play and work everyday some. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, Watch out for traffic, Hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder."
