Kids…
I love kids. There is
something so magical and refreshing about how they think (or sometimes, don’t
think!).
Despite the chaos of adults working on line, and kids being
home schooled all over the place, it’s quite a time for observation and
introspection.
Kids worry about
different things than we do. And some
don’t worry at all.
All in all, it’s bringing a kind of closeness we might never
have had.
Some of my grands are nesting in their own homes right now,
some are distant, so hugs with those are missed, though we skype and zoom and
text. And can’t wait to see them.
In my books, I’ve almost always included kids (as well as
pets!), because of the joy they bring. They're often a very important part of love.
My very first book came out in 1978, “Nurse at Deer Hollow”,
a “Nurse Romance” published by Avalon Books, hardcover, and distributed to
many, many libraries. Many more followed.
When Avalon changed ownership many years ago, my early books
were re-released, with new covers, new titles, and in paperback and electronic
versions. The current title is “Patient
Heart”, still very available.
It's a sweet romantic mystery about a dedicated nurse, who finds herself immersed in danger when she travels to be a private duty nurse at a large estate.There is a hurting child in this one, healed by love and
acceptance and attention. And, of
course, a puppy. If you try it, I hope you love it!
Do you like to read romances that include kids? What’s your favorite?
Do you have kids in your life, near or far, who make the day
brighter? Kids, grands, students, neighbors?
I’d love to hear!

How lovely that you have multiple generations staying at home together, Christine!
ReplyDeleteI know I am blessed!
DeleteI miss my two granddaughters.
ReplyDeleteI sure miss the ones who live a distance too!
DeleteChristine, You are fortunate to have children and grandchildren living with you. It's a challenge, but also a blessing.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is!
DeleteI love to read and write stories with kids. Kids make us smile. My granddaughters live far away, and this year our planned trip to see them at the end of May is not going to happen. We've been doing Facetime with them. They love to give me quizzes.
ReplyDeleteWe're lucky to have technology!
