last year...Emi's kindergarten teacher was an amazing woman from Oregon... Emi became an advocate for saving the Earth and its inhabitants. I love it!
Emily is a firm believer in not eating cows...after all, they already give us butter, cheese and milk. She would prefer us not eat chickens either since they give us eggs.
It's not nice.
She monitors the water usage in our house as well...gently reminding Reuben to do all his spitting in the sink when he brushes his teeth before turning on the water.
She loves recycling! She walked very importantly and responsible when I sent her to take the newspapers down the block to our designated dumpster.
One thing, however, makes no sense to her. Reusable cloth grocery bags. After all...we need the plastic ones in order to recycle them at the school for money, and we reuse the plastic bags all the time for all sorts of stuff!
She's doing her part!

what a clever girl she is.
Thanks for sharing...so funny! I love it!
Cute girl--though i am a full fledged carnivor . . .I do have to say I admire her awareness at such a young age.
What a great teacher! Showing the children how to be aware of their surroundings and the earth. Passion, got to love it because it teaches so much. Just a few good things make a huge difference for sure.
I love the "it's not nice" comment! Very "Emi"!!!
Hey Amber, I just found you through Shauna's blog, how exciting! What a cutie little Emi is! And how nice to have a teacher sharing her passion for caring for our earth.
By the way, Sariah REALLY misses your dance class!
