As I sit down to write this assignment I could not think of five people that has played an important part in my life as a child. There is my father, Walter. He was in his late forty when I was born. He was a very good provider, and teacher. He is now 94 years old. Willie B is my mother loving and caring. she taught me how to sew, cook and encourage me to get an education. Charlean, my sister she was an only child until our father married my mother. I grew up with two mothers Willie B and Charlean.
Charlean was there to make sure that if someone missed I love you, she would hug me and say it. If there was a play at school she was there to help me focus. If there was a problem at home or school she was there to help comfort me. She was a sister, protector, guardian and mother.She always encouraged us to make good grades in school, then challenge us in college by going back with us.
Then there is as we call her ,Miss Carrie, family friend. She was and still is loving and caring to us. She was quick to fuss, but just as quick to encourage you to be all you can be.
I think that that the people around me as a child meet Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory.

Memory of childhood
It has been a while but I think of a quote about children my favorite one would be by Art Linkletter, " kids say the things darnest things.
Childhood is the world of miracle or magic:It is as if creation rose luminously out of the night, all new and fresh and astonishing. Childhood is over the moment things are no longer astonishing. When the world gives you a feeling of " deja vu". When you are use to existence, you become an adult.
Eugene Ionesco,present/past/ past present
My favorite book as a child was "Rudolph Red nose reindeer. I like it because everyone made fun of him.Yet he did not fight with them. Yet on a foggy Christmas eve, Santa ask him to pull his sleigh. this just show that because you may look funny, there is something you can do that is good.
The story of a child that touch my heart was about a young boy that was seemly growing normally until at the age of ten months he stopped crying or babbling. for the mother and child it was multiple visits to the doctor. after months of testing he was diagnosed with Ashberger syndrome.
The family came together to make a plan on how to care for this special child for long term.
Their main goals was for him to learn to talk and communication. To know he is loved and how to care for his self. Today he is a kindergartner, that if you didn't know him before you would.t believe this outspoken smart quick to catch on little boy has ASD.
