Children gathered...
 |
| Say, "Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese!" |
They were curious about life...
 |
| "How does that work?" |
They created feelings faces...
 |
| "My name is Taylor. I am feeling happy." |
They read stories...
 |
| "I love me..." |
They had their faces painted...
 |
| "I love it." |
They won the goldfish guessing game...
 |
| Congratulations to Angela, Danielle, and Jackie Wescott! |
And they saw legislators in action...
 |
After getting her face painted, Representative Hawken (R-Fargo ) talks with Allison Mahoney of PCAND. Thanks to all the legislators who stopped -- with or without face paint! |
At the end of the day, we were pretty sure the kids had almost as much fun as we did...
 |
| Ronya Hoblit and Karen Van Fossan, both of PCAND |
Almost...!

We'd like to express our sincere gratitude to all who joined us, particularly First Lady Betsy Dalrymple, who wore a "Head Start Works" button and thanked each of us for our work.
When you have a chance, please let these early childhood organizations know how much you appreciate their presence in our world -- and at Uniting for Early Childhood Day!
