Then I'd say, "I thought of a poem." And he'd say, "Okay." Then I'd say my poem and he'd type it out for me and keep it in a special file labeled with my name. <br /><br />Now I'm a writer. A nearly published writer. And I hope I help my kids find the same confidence in their talents.<br /><br />You're a good mom.Melanie Jacobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02489615939726209573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823847273927280303.post-42817314821377569322010-03-25T16:59:17.379-06:002010-03-25T16:59:17.379-06:00That is WONDERFUL!
