Out of the mouths of babes…

We took our Voters Creative project to the Aloha Playhouse and worked with the most delightful group of youngsters to create their version of VOTE! Each child brought their favorite collection of toys to work with. There were cars, barbies, legos and even a collection of lip stick.

The Children created and played and created some more, even the dog got involved. It was playful, light and chaotically wonderful to witness.

I asked each child to tell me what was important to them. Jack said LOVE! No hesitation, no pause to think about it, just LOVE! and then he smiled and ran off to play with his friends. Willie said FAMILY! and then proceeded to draw a picture of his family in the journal.

Those few hours spent with the children and their families talking, journaling, laughing and playing were precious to me. They represent the future, our future. One filled with LOVE! and FAMILY!
