Well, it’s been a little while… I think all my wonderful Peeps have realised that Ritu has been spreading herself very thin… but today I got challenged, not once, but twice, for the 3 Quote 3 Day challenge, and none other than some of my Blogily, my siblings, an elder brother, Rich and my big sis, Judy. Typical annoying, but extremely lovely siblings, and what could I do? I had to take this challenge! So I shall do it once, but for them both…
Rules for Three-Day Quote Challenge
Thank the blogger, who nominated you.
Publish 3 quotes on 3 consecutive days in your blog. It can be your own, or from a book, movie or from anyone who inspires you.
Nominate 3 more bloggers to carry on this endeavour.
With my time constraints, I have decided that I will do the quotes, but I shall open this challenge to you all, my Peeps!, no particular nominations!
And so to the Challenge…
All about teaching this time.
Continuing on yesterday’s vein…
At the moment, I am in a position where I am essentially creating a foundation for the future learning of a group of 40 children. In our nursery there are a vast majority of children who have never been to another type if pre school or educational facility, so we are their first experience of ‘school’.
At the moment I am very much at the level of holding their hands. Once they have trust and faith, I hope to open their minds to a wealth of learning, and possibly, I’ll touch their hearts.. they might remember me when they get older.
Whatever happens, I just hope I can be that stable base for them, along with my team, so these children are able to make the best of themselves in the future.
And as it’s a Wednesday morning, I wish you all well my lovely Peeps, and this challenge is open to you all! Have a wonderfull day!

It’s all about teaching and learning this time…
This is something so fundamentally true, I can’t explain enough how important it is.
We, as teachers, need to show our pupils how to do things, so they are able to solve problems, Â deal with issues, live life fully, not make them learn things by rote, so when they are faced with a real life situation, they don’t know how to cope.
We also need to help them stretch their imaginations, and let children know that they do have their own minds, and they are allowed to have their own thoughts and opinions.
Being a teacher is not just all about ABC and 123 nowadays. We need to help them cement life skills. Unfortunately there are many parents out there nowadays, who, being so young themselves, don’t always have the wherewithal to teach their own kids the most basic skills and standards. I’m not saying we should undermine these parents, but we stand as examples for these children. They learn so much by example.
Whoever said “Those who can do, and those who can’t, teach” needs to be shot! All they could ‘do’ was chat total rubbish! I wonder whether they ever needed a teacher in their life ??!! Erm, I think so!!!
So on that note, I say good night, and if you would like, take this challenge!
Oh, and remember a teacher of yours, someone who changed your thinking, someone who was a positive influence on you!

Seriously, this is the most intense form of intimacy that a couple can encounter, when there is no need for sexual contact, but you can feel the connection, that pull.
It’s short and sweet today, but I’ll leave you with a smooch classic!
