Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Education of the Child From One to Three "I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Not borne on morning wings Of majesty, but I have set my feet Amidst the delicate and bladed wheat, That springs triumphant in the furrowed sod. There do I dwell in weakness and in power; Not broken or divided, saith our God! In your strait garden plot I come to flower. About your porch My Vine, Meek, fruitful, doth entwine; Waits, at the threshold, Love´s appointed hour. "I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! On the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hard and wayward heart. In brown, bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood - There doth My Godhead rest." - Evelyn Underhill.

It is hard to get some mothers to take their function as teachers in the nursery seriously. They argue that they would postpone education as long as possible, so as to keep their babies from growing up. Upon this excuse Mrs. Dorothy Canfield Fisher has put a most emphatic stamp of disapproval. She says: "Consider for a moment the real significance of the feeling expressed by the mothers we have all met, when they cry, ´Oh, I can´t bear to have the babies grow up!´ and when they refuse to correct the pretty, lisping, inarticulate baby talk. I have been one of those mothers myself, and I certainly would have regarded as malicious and spiteful any person who had told me that my feelings sprang from almost unadulterated egotism, and that I ´couldn´t bear to have the babies grow up´ because I wanted to continue longer in my complacent, self-assumed role of God, that I wished to be surrounded by little sycophants who, knowing no standard but my personality, could not judge me as anything but infallible, and that I was wilfully keeping the children granted me by a kind heaven as weak and dependent on me as possible, that they might continue to secrete more food for my egotism."
