Birthday Poetry

A few weeks ago, Ryland's Sunday School teacher {and my very good friend} had a birthday.
 Ryland wanted to make her a really nice card to express his appreciation for her friendship.
He decided a poem would be right for the occasion along with a battle scene drawing.


 'Mrs. Udd
is not
mud'

Such beautiful words to express how we feel about you!



He worked so hard on his poem that I didn't have the heart to ask him to make something a little more, um . . . well . . . birthday appropriate.  Thankfully Mrs. U is an extremely gracious lady - especially considering the fact that Ryland gave her a sharpened pencil as a gift instead of dark chocolate, as recommended by his mother.

  1. That's a great poem :) I'm sure Mrs. U appreciated the heartfelt sentiment behind it. I taught Sunday School for many years and no one ever wrote a poem for me!!! :) (albeit Toliver doesn't have quite the same rhyming possibilities as Udd!)
