"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.
by Albert Einstein
It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education. - Albert Einstein

My baby DD was fussing in her highchair. DS commented, "She is just like the toilet when it is not working properly."
Curious Mother: "What do you mean?"
DS: "You have to jiggle her for her to be quiet."
We are a curious homeschooling family with curious kids, baby, mom, dad, cat and most curious is our dog. His curiosity gets him into trouble again and again, especially when he is curious about the garbage.
The people in our house carry encyclopedias around, even to the bathroom, and like to read the dictionary, large atlases, as well as the BIBLE.
We tend to read EVERYTHING (even cereal boxes, junk mail and food labels) and we want to know the answer to all the questions one could ever wonder.
We like books on cassettes, CDs, the radio and in our hands. We like to read silently, out loud and mostly before bed.
We internet on our networked computers and go enjoy the community library as well as buy oodles of books and I guess that is what curious people do.
Have a very BLESSED day full of the exciting curiosity of a child!
