Ofcourse her time with the Prophet is as important, as it is the basis of her later life. @ suroor – im not sure why he depicted A’isha as barren, but I think he sends an important message out, that even though she did not have any children with the prophet (saw), she was still cherished and valued, especially in a land/culture where not having children is a huge issue, and since he’s telling the story from her eyes, he would focus on her, not the others
