Inspirational Poem: Nothing
If you ask your child
“What did you do today?”
Don’t be surprised
If he has “nothing” to say.
The question’s so big
There was so much to do.
So hard to remember
Too much to tell you.
It was a really busy and complicated day.
So “nothing” comes out,
Though there’s so much to say.
So for your information
It is better to say,
“Did you hear a story”
“Did you paint today?”
Please help him remember what it was about
And before you know it, more things will pour out.
Ask for specifics about things that they do;
You’ll love hearing the things that
Your child will tell you!
