I Miss This Guy. . . .

Thanks to the folks at PBS Digital Studios, Fred Rogers is back. I realize how much I miss him. . . and how much I miss the times that he represents. Children's television programming used to be more balanced, restrained, responsible, and thoughtful. By and large, today's children have no idea who this man was. Sadly, they won't ever experience the gentle nature of his daily "visits." And so I pass this on as something soothing and something to think about. . . .

That really made me smile, thanks! I remember watching Mr. Rogers all the time and now realizing that his show would be waaaayyyyy tooooooo sloooowwwww for my kids to enjoy. But, watching him again, just brought a smile to my face and really did soothe me!
