Writing It Out

"Where are you going?"

"To get a pencil."

"Why?"

"To write a letter."

"To whom?"

"To you Mom."

And he did.

“Dear Mom,

I have a problem. My problem is .  .  .”

It seems that my son has discovered the power of the written word.

I find this a very hopeful development. At the very least, he has devised

a coping mechanism. At the most, maybe he’ll focus more on the feeling behind the words written by others.
