I am venturing out on a new journey. A journey that I hope will gain a few followers along the way. I am sure that as with any journey, there will be a lot for me to learn in the process.
Process is a word I like to use often-I use it to describe how I go about teaching young children and even parents of those children. Describing process and the steps that go in to a process says a lot about a person's (children and adults) development. Out of process sometimes comes product-sometimes this is a reward from hard work. What I hope though, is that the process will be a journey of learning to be a humble leader, a strong follower and to use my lessons learned to inspire others.
For me this process is about a \ project that was born out of a little proposal. What has transpired since it was submitted to The National Association For Family Child Care (NAFCC) has been exciting, nerve wracking and is shaping up for what will truly be an adventure like no other . NAFCC made the decision which proposals were forwarded to the World Global Forum for Early Care and Education. I was informed about 2 weeks ago that I would be attending the World Forum in May, 2011...in.....wait for it.....yes, Hawaii. This is exciting news for a native Vermont girl!
The project at this point and time will be to implement a regional conference that will use a Vermont model that is currently being developed. There will be more details to follow about this.
For now though I will focus on the process of preparing for a trip to a new place, for a new adventure. I could not be more excited!
Until next time....
