Day...

After searching  on the Internet the last few days.  I found a perfect poem for the class to give to Mrs. Smith.  Each parent added a special touch by adding a personal message for Mrs. Smith. Then Sarah and I added the red paper, sticker and put it in a frame.  On Thursday the students presented it to Mrs. Smith.  It may be hard to read so I added the poem below... ENJOY!
 Why God Made Teachers
When God created teachers,He gave us special friendsTo help us understand His worldAnd truly comprehendThe beauty and the wonder
Of everything we see,
And become a better personWith each discovery.When God created teachers,
He gave us special guidesTo show us ways in which to growSo we can all decideHow to live and how to doWhat’s right instead of wrong,To lead us so that we can leadAnd learn how to be strong.
Why God created teachers,In His wisdom and His grace,Was to help us learn to make our worldA better, wiser place.

Today was Muffins for Moms in Adam's class.  The parents ate muffins and drank tea.  It was nice spending this special time with Adam.  I love you so much Adam!  Adam made this beautiful flower and gave it to me for Mother's Day. 

Many of you have probably heard this poem before but it is still so sweet and true.
Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls.

But every day I'm growing -
I'll be grown some day
And all those tiny hand prints
Will surely fade away.

So here's a little hand print
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small.
