A Gift for Ms. Patty

Ms. Patty is one special lady to a lot of ppl.  She has loved on every kid that every passed through the nursery at Shiloh Road.  Her birthday was in May and we decided to try to make a gift for her from all her kids in the nursery.  It was kind of tricky getting a gift together when Ms. Patty when she is in and out of all the classrooms - but hey, where there is a will there is a way!

With the help of a lot of the mom's we managed to get all the finger prints of every kid that is under Ms. Patty's care.  We had cut out a heart in some contact paper so when the kids did their finger prints we didn't have to worry about the paint getting everywhere.  It worked really well!  We put a poem around the heart and put the kids prints and names on the back of the sign.

"See there's this place in me where your fingerprints still rest,

Your kisses still linger,

And your whispers softly echo.

It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me."

Not that we could ever really adequately convey our appreciation and gratitude to such a special lady but we hope that she knows how much we all love her and are very mindful and grateful for all she does for our families.
