dc.description.abstract	This thesis is, for the most part, my rendering of an interpretation of the personal meaning of being a teacher implicit in the professional practices of my co-researcher in this enterprise and of myself. Initially, a text was created in our conversations, in my observation of my co-researcher at his work, and in my reflection on my own practice. I then interpreted that text and created this text, this thesis, for the edification of my co-participant and myself and, hopefully, for any others who might read it. Hopefully as well, it is a text which shows how and who we are in our lives with children, and an affirmation of what we aim for and what we aspire to reach. Such a text requires mimetic reading in that the reader needs to make him or herself open to the consideration of the nature and the possibilities of his or her pedagogy, the way of being.
