Letter: Cherish children like silver dollars

From: Kenneth Landreth

Today let’s talk about something other than politics. Do people remember ever having a silver dollar? If they did, they held it so tight, so close to their heart, didn’t they?

Well, a child is like a silver dollar. Hold that child close to one’s heart, love it, polish it. If one does, he or she will grow to be strong, truthful, faithful, loyal, disciplined and polished, just like a silver dollar.

One will be proud of that man or lady, and one will always cherish that child as though it was that silver dollar. Remember, that child was given to love, protect and make shine.
