That's a great practice to start in keeping kids and parents connected. It also builds a standard for our kids to keep going with their children - the importance or reaching out and staying connected.

Parents are like our children, gifts from God. Cherish them and what they bring to your life by taking time out of your week to call or visit them. Or if you have an elderly friend who is now in assisted living, give them a ring or stop by. Not only will they appreciate it but you will get so much in return.
