Carrie and Danielle: Dinosaurs In The Garden Of Eden: Teaching Your Child Respect For The Environment

  • pearl_mattenson · 1 year ago
    So the dinosaur was a sacrifice on the altar of magic- a magic that with your daughter's help,your husband will also be looking for more of in the beauty of the forest -thanks for sharing this moment. Actually what most struck me was the adult voice that is so quick to say, " The magic is done" Thank heavens for the little people who ignore us.

    My daughter is THREE today, what a nice way to celebrate her birthday, Carrie And Danielle, by publishing this on the very day.

    And thank you, Pearl, you're so right. Here's to a new year of magic awareness!

    How beautiful that she sees God's magic , when we are so conditioned to looking for man-made beauty. You must indeed have given her respect for the planet. A delightful story, what a birthday present for your daughter!

    Wow, that truly was beautiful. Your daughter indeed as the 'sight' to see the essence of the magic that's present in all of creation. Lovely.

    wonderful writing! And anyone who is a mother can relate. Could we retain that childhood wonder and linger a little longer in the magic forest!

    An honor to have WW read my story - my first writing teacher and a beautiful poetic mind himself. And his amazing wife was the first to put environmentalism and vegetarianism in my path. A dynamic duo indeed. (but I still can't eat much tofu...)
  • Deanne · 1 year ago
    Wow, Lucia! Loved it. Everyone with three year old daughters knows about "the magic". We found our own magical dinosaur on Savary Island on the beach under a log. He was named, Murphy and now resides in Horseshoe Canyon!

    Deanne, that's hilarious! Dinosaurs back with the dinosaurs. Thank you for writing. xo L
