A wise woman once said…

Maria, a friend of mine and mum to two young kids emailed me recently with an anecdote that her partner, Craig, remembers from his childhood. I thought it was a great reminder of how powerful a mum’s loving words can be.

Craig remembers learning to read. He said his mum read to him a lot and he loved stories. She said to him, “one day you will learn to read the words and can read as many books as you like”. He remembers thinking how great that would be and couldn’t wait to learn how to read.

That’s pretty cool!
