​Our mother cares for our needs and is patient with us as we grow. It is she who tends our planting fields. Her capable hands turn deer skin into clothes, and weave our baskets and mats. Her strong back carried out belongings from place to place. We listen to her songs, full of thanks for life and eath's gifts.

We the children ​of our family roam the fields and along the shore. We are constantly in and near the brook and pond. We especially like to skirt around the edges of the forest and make small wigwams there. We are eager to learn about everything we smell and hear.

​In the Nammasckee'wush moon when the river ice has gone, ducks and geese return to Father Sky and bring back the East wing that melts the snow. It is time for our family to return to our fishing place. Fish again will swim from the deep sea up the swift-moving river over the falls to lay their eggs. Our men will now catch them in their purse nets. It is a time of plenty.
