I give you back your child, the
same child you confidently entrusted to my care last fall. I give him back
pounds heavier, inches taller, months wiser, more responsible, and more mature
than he was then.
Although he would have attained
this growth in spite of me, it has been my pleasure and privilege to watch his personality
unfold day by day and marvel at this splendid miracle of development.
I give him back reluctantly,
for having spent many months together in the narrow confines of a crowded
classroom, we have grown close, have become a part of each other, and we will
always retain a little of each other.
We have lived, loved, laughed,
played, studied, learned, and enriched our lives together this year.
But give him back I must.
Love,
Mrs. C.

Mrs. Constantine,
I can't thank you enough for those many months you have invested in Frances and the other kids "in the narrow confines of that crowded classroom." I agree that you "have become a part of each other, and that you will always retain a little of each other." And I feel sooo blessed that God arranged for it to be YOU! I could not be more pleased with the way her 1st year in public school has gone.
I am glad to get her back, but we will surely miss you being in our lives! You are the BEST!
