Close to Perfect


Most days I get to teach first graders a word of the day. It usually has something to do with a book they are reading. Today the word was "perfect". I was trying to think of things that are perfect so they could have ideas for their journal pages. I told them my mom is perfect. One little girl piped up with, "No one is perfect." Another girl said, "But she's perfect for you". I agree. Mom, you are perfect for me.

In all actuality, your Mother is one of the persons in my life that consistently strives to be perfect, and that is why I love her so. The picture of you and your Mom is absolutely priceless - what a beautiful tribute to both of you.
