A Dream!

2008.01.21
Katie being silly!

I love watching children create artwork

Her favorite colors are yellow and blue.

Birthday parties are so fun.


Today, my daughter went to a birthday party for one of her classmates. Seeing the different races of children playing, laughing, enjoying each other without a care in the world, made me realize that Dr. Martin Luther King's Dream IS becoming a reality.

Thank You Dr. King for all that you did for this country!

lexlevans these are so cute! you're daughter is pretty (i've probably said this before, but i mean it! great smile!) i also love watching children make art - probably why i was an art teacher for my first career! my classroom was full of great kids and great times.

and i agree with you about Dr. King's dream becoming a reality - i was thinking about it today and how even when i was young i rarely knew a world that wasn't appreciative of diversity (at least where i lived) - however lately i feel racism is directed towards other ethnicities in this country and we have to continue to fight that too!

aurian Kate's hairstyle is wonderful! I can only imagine how long it would take to create such complicated braids! There is just something about art that brings people together, no matter their age or race. I often think the same as you - seeing all kinds of children playing together happily, and not having some of the judgements that adults might have. Modern culture is so much more inclusive than it used to be! :)
