I Heart Mr Rogers

I introduced Elise to Fred Rogers today. My local library has some Mr Rogers' Neighborhood dvds and I ripped a few of them a long time ago, when we first started fostering. I let Elise watch one of the dvds this afternoon while I was making dinner. She really liked it.

I love Fred Rogers. There aren't many people that I haven't personally met that I can truly say that I love. But I love Fred Rogers. He's an amazing person.

“Love isn't a state of perfect caring. It is an active noun like struggle. To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way he or she is, right here and now.”
