Toddler Persistence

I remember when my toddlers would ask me for something over and over and over. At the time, it seemed funny, cute, and also (eventually) annoying. But now I realize that they were practicing persistence, a skill they would be able to use throughout their lives as they advocate for themselves and for others, for liberty and justice. How amazing that cute little toddler ways can turn into practices that can change the world. -Jody Malloy (CLF)
