As I was substitute teaching the other day and involved in a Valentine’s Day writing activity with the youngsters about a valentine’s journey, I was reminded of my mom and all the activities she did with us children surrounding this day. She, too, used to talk about the travels a valentine, as well as other letters, encountered as they went from one place to another.
It was a way to understand the postal system and the geography of our land where a letter or card might travel. Even in her early Alzheimer’s years, Mother liked to send valentines to her friends, grandchildren. and great grandchildren.
Here’s a writing prompt, A Valentine’s Journey, I’ve posted at my One Book Two Book blog.
