What's a Note Napkin? It May Be the Way to Your Child's Heart!

Several years ago, I heard about a stay-at-home dad who included a "napkin note" each day in his daughter's lunch. Years later, they had saved each and every napkin to make into a book to cherish the memories of a year in her life. I decided to do the same for my girls. 

Every day they took a lunch, I included a note, poem, verse or anything silly I could think of to try and make them smile during their day. We didn't save the napkins but now, years later, I still remember the fun of trying to do something little and fun for them each morning. 

Send a smile to school with your child!
