working with children is a *CALLING* and you know if you've been *CALLED*.
It's the tickle in your gut when you see a toddler experience ice cream for the first time, the swell in your chest when you see a preschooler's surprise as they tie their own shoes, the unavoidable giggles that escape when a four-year olds tell jokes, the smiles that flow when you are swarmed by two year olds wanting to give your legs a hug.
The overwhelming joy you feel when an infant is soothed by your comfort.
