An OPEN Letter to children of every age

It has been a quiet day, some snow, cold, just a quiet Sunday. I fixed chicken, dressing and corn, had a nice dinner ....................

And then ............. a CALL from my daughter and Lisa, we talked for quite a while, BRIGHTENED my whole day. YOU, as a sibling, have no idea, what a telephone call can do to a parent .... uplifting, to say the least. We just talked, I probably talked too much, but I was happy, happy because they thought of me, enough to make the call.

My spirits have been lifted, greatly, just because, my kid, called me ........ you have no idea what that does for the person you call .......
