I know those feelings! I'd like to frame it for my children. I have four and the oldest is now eye-rolling! I love your work!!

Beautiful exchange between parent and child and the hope and potential you are trying to encourage. Yes, I agree the title seems a little off -- not the morning part, but the 'drop-off' because it also implies NO HOPE or a sense of failing, when really this poem is about hope and future. I don't have a title for you, but I would try a word or phrase that describes your TRAVEL to school as well as the TRAVEL into the future, into possibilities. Hope this helps!

Terrific piece, I'm not a mother but I see this exchange between parents and children all the time. The way you wrote it really gives it life and magic. I'm thinking maybe "First Defense", "Your Defense" , or "In your eyes".

Beautiful expression of motherhood joys!
Honestly, I hate trying to think of titles, lol. This piece speaks to me on a level that only other mothers can ever truly comprehend! Fantastic write!!
