August 10
August 10,
2015....This was the first day of school.
Our rooms were filled with adorable new faces and some pretty fantastic
new personalities. Usually, I would want
to talk about that. But not
tonight. Tonight I want to talk about
August 10, the day one of the most incredible people I know was born. Today we celebrated the day of birth of Mrs.
Patterson. She turned 28 today!
I couldn’t let today end
without writing a tribute to her. I have
been blessed to teach next to her for close to four years now. It has been four of the best years of my
teaching career. She makes every day
better. I can sit at my desk and hear
her laughter travel from her room to mine and it makes my world happier. She is the very best person to share a laugh
with, making me laugh so hard that I very often cry. Seriously, my make up is a mess most of the time these days! She sees the good in others. She always has kind words to say to lift
another up. She is always willing to
lend a helping hand. She is one of the
happiest and bubbliest people I know.
She is a good wife, always saying kind things about her husband, and
always wanting him lifted up and happy.
She is an amazing daughter, worrying about her mom and dad when they are stressed,
calling her mom to laugh about the happenings of the day. She is a compassionate sister, attending her
brothers’ events, making each of their favorite
desserts for no other reason except that she loves them. She is a kind and caring coworker, thinking
of others with a card, a favorite snack, a laugh, or sometimes a hug. She is the easiest person in the world to
talk to and can be trusted with even the scariest of secrets. I could go on and on singing her praises
because it’s hard to find
any of her faults among all of her many amazing qualities including her ability to WOW a group of kiddos! They all love her...how could they not? To sum it up, I can say with all confidence
that 28 years ago the world became a better place when she entered the
world. I will be forever grateful that
God blessed me with her as a coworker, a confidante, and as a very true
friend. You are one of a kind, Mrs.
Patterson! Thanks for being you!
Love,
The Other Two Teacher Friend
