In the past few days you have sent your teenager off to school once again. This experience is filled with so many emotions. I wanted to honor the occasion by creating a FREE Connection Tool for you to use to build your relationship with your teenager today.
Here is a “fill-in-the-blank” note you can leave in a special place for them to find when they come home from school today. I did a lot of the work for you. You just add your own heartfelt words, print, and hide it in a place where your teenager will find it.
They may never even mention to you that they saw it, but I promise they will never forget it.

Dear ___________ ,
Watching you go back to school reminds me of the first day I sent you to school. You were so young. You were nervous and excited all at the same time. I was also very nervous. Would you be safe? Would you make friends?
Will you enjoy school? Will you ever realize just how much I care about you?
It’s funny. All these years later I still get nervous, and I still ask the same questions.
I just wanted to write you a note to tell you I love you. I celebrate you as you enter this new school year.
In case you don’t realize it, I have made a list of the things I notice about you that are unique and wonderful.
* You are ________________
* You are ________________
* You are _______________
* You are ________________
All of these things and more are the reasons why I am hoping and praying that this will be your best school year yet!
Your biggest fan,
