Does anyone have a poem to give to a friend who is going through a hard time, and needs help finding that silver lining? I know it's a bit of a long shot but I've trawled the Internet a bit and haven't come up with much. I considered doing my own, but haven't been brave enough! She takes comfort in powerful words, etc, and I thought a poem may be a good medium? Thanks in advance.

We have lots of magnetic letters and letter cubes, but the children find it difficult to find the letters they are looking for. Does anyone have a good way of storing them so chn. can find the letters they want. I tried labelling bun tins, but the labels came off too easily.
