Putting Away the Childish Things

Innocence.

This theme permeates the post, Putting Away The Childish Things, written by Sarah Piazza on May 2, 2011. How do we preserve the innocence of our children during a time of war and international conflict and tragedy? Sarah asks the hard question, "...what takes the place of lost innocence? Is it wisdom? Experience?"
