Write Notes To Your Kids

I wrote an article for Woman’s World It was quite a few years ago The article was about parenting I thought you might like to know When my son was just a little boy And his daddy died so young I found a way to communicate The blackboard was where it began It was in my little office where I could write a note and walk away My little boy wrote back to me Little thoughts we’d find to say But the point was we were able To say things we wouldn’t say To each other in our own way And we’d write them every day “Hello, Mom, I love you.” “My son, I love you too” This went on for several years Then our lives changed and life was new I remarried and it was difficult For my boy was then sixteen With a step-father and high school Life was feeling kind of mean I once again wrote little notes And slipped them into his room And pretty soon he smiled again Sunshine changed his gloom So if you have a child, my friend And there is sadness in his or her midst Try what I did... it may work Try writing notes to your kids!
