A Gift With Words

Liked the episode? Let us know by sending a text message.This is a story I've been meaning to write for a while. Many of the Sophie and Sebastian stories are about relationships and community. So I wanted the kids to do a kind deed. The challenge was to avoid being overly preachy and boring. You'll have to decide if the story succeeds in that.Writing "A Gift With Words" was challenging because it made me reflect on my own shortcomings. Living far away from parents is not always easy. This story is a reflection on what most of us can do better. Note: a couple of times an airplane flew over as I recorded this. So you might hear a bit of background noise. Support the show
