WE FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS KID. ALEJANDRO IS JUST ONE YEAR OLD BUT WE’VE LEARNED SO MUCH FROM HIM. HIS JOY AND AN EXPLOSION OF EMOTIONS IS A TRUE INSPIRATION TO US. THERE IS A GREAT PHRASE BY JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU: “YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT SEEING HIM SPEND HIS EARLY YEARS IN DOING NOTHING. WHAT! IS IT NOTHING TO BE HAPPY? NOTHING TO SKIP, PLAY, AND RUN AROUND ALL DAY LONG? NEVER IN HIS LIFE WILL HE BE SO BUSY AGAIN.” EMILE, 1762.
WE ARE TRYING TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN ALL ABOUT LIFE. BUT THE FACT IS THAT THEY TEACH US WHAT LIFE IS, WITH ALL ITS UPS AND DOWNS.
