Alexis came home from school with a pile of corrected homework for me to go through. There was a lot so I sat it aside and decided to look through it later. Later came after all of my children were nestled in bed. As I looked through the papers I noticed two notes to her friends that she had composed, both of them saying thank you for helping her carry her books or tray. It made me happy that she has a heart that is grateful!
I also loved the note she recently left for me…Sunday night I had to go to a few meetings. When I came home there was a note on my bed that said, “Mom come to my room when you get home.” Unfortunately by the time I returned home she had fallen asleep, but I was so happy to get an invitation to talk and be with her.

I love notes from Grandma Parker. It is always fun to get a note of thanks or a kind word. Grandma used to put them in my lunch box.

I tend to save every little love note I’ve ever received. I think they are most precious and will keep me warm in the winter of my life! Way to be-Lex!
