Well, sometimes I feel like they are from another planet. So inquisitive and creative. Observing and learning very very rapidly. I don’t always have the answers they’re looking for but I try. This quote felt appropriate.

Sometimes we forget that children have just arrived on the earth. They are a little like aliens, coming into beings as bundles of energy and pure potential, here on some exploratory mission and they are just trying to learn what it means to be human.

Martian Child by David Gerrold

This reminds me that it’s all new to them. ALL of it. That it’s my responsibility as a dad to teach them how to be a human. No pressure though.
