School Children

After our brief encounter with the children from Finch Elementary, we separated. They continued to some other location in the park, while our group continued with the plants.

Some time later, we saw the children again as they passed through our area.

This photograph just makes me happy. The young children are walking through the beautiful root fields, surrounded by bright yellow flowers and sunshine. As I watch them, I pray in my heart that they learn to love the land, the plants, and the animals of this place the way I do. Hopefully my small efforts today will help.
