Thank you!

One hope that I have when working with children and their families from diverse backgrounds is that I want to be able to show that I care and respect their family unit and who they are and what their diversity means to me.

One goal I have for the early childhood field related to the issues of diversity, equity and social justice is that we help teach the children we work with that everyone is equal no matter what their gender, race or ethnicity is. We should love and respect every person we encounter for their uniqueness.

I want to thank all of my colleagues for your thoughtful responses to discussion and blogs. I have enjoyed learning along side of all of you and getting to know each of you through your personal stories. I wish you all the best of luck as you continue on your path for a higher education.
