Well, it's that time of year again - time to remember all that we are thankful for, those we miss, those we love, and for what we have. Here's a little poem that I think sums up what I'm trying to say:
Make a Memory
Make a memory with your children, Spend some time to show you care;
Toys and trinkets can't replace those Precious moments that you share.
Money doesn't buy real pleasure, It doesn't matter where you live;
Children need your own attention, Something only you can give.
Childhood's days pass all too quickly, Happy memories all too few;
Plan to do that special something, Take the time to go or do.
Make a memory with your children, Take the time in busy days;.
Have some fun while they are growing, Show your love in gentle ways.
