A KISS IN HAND
Many of us leave our small children to the care of others during the day. When it’s time to part, there are often tears. My daughter and I have developed a daily ritual that helps make the separation easier. Each morning I kiss the palm of her hand, and she mine. We close our hands up tightly and place our kisses in our pockets. When the little one feels lonely, she can reach into her pocket, take out her kiss and place it on her cheek. It is a nice way for each of us to take a little bit of the other into our day. Cindi Cramer, Stevensville, MD, from Woman’s Day, March 20, 1990
