A child's perspective on her mother's studies:
Daddy,
Why does mom have to study, if she is old enough to teach? She is probably as old as her teachers.

Mommy's answer posted on our Umana-Anderson Journal-- a bilingual blog Alfredo created to facilitate our communication during our travels-- (http://umanaanderson.blogspot.com/)
Hmm, good question Valerie.
But, remember Valerie, Mommy will be a student forever. In other words, God has made such wonderful things on earth that I am curious about and so I read and study to discover them!
God smiles when He sees me discovering stuff that He himself created. Imagine God looking over at both Mommy/Daddy and Valerie and Victor, clapping His hands together when He sees us figure something out! He loves it when we learn!

Here's my story Lisa:
My 5 year old daughter who is very excited about starting Kindergarten next year asked me today: "How long is school?" I explained that you start with 12 years, then possibly do another 4 for college, then do another 2 for a Masters and you could go on to do a PhD for another 7.
My 8 year old daughter was intently listening in and was amazed at all the studies.
Then the 5 year old said, "I'm not going to college." :)
Information overload?
Keep it up Lisa!
