My daughter was blessed to have "Miss Phyllis" when she was four years old. That same year we gave birth to twins and along with a 6 year old it was an incredibly busy time in our lives. "Miss Phyllis" made sure Caroline's days were consistent and fun with lots of hugs. As great as those days were something even sweeter comes to mind when I think of "Miss Phyllis". Two years later, after Caroline had graduated from Otter Creek, our family was devasted by a house fire and lost all our material belongings. The Otter Creek family was quick to offer help and support in this extreme time of need. We didn't have any children at the school during this time, but this didn't matter to the sweet teachers and Pat. Meals were still delivered and donations were still made to help bring some comfort to us. My sweetest memory during that time is of "Miss Phyllis". She took the time to replace a couple of blankets she had handmade for the twins at the time of their birth that they loved so much. In addition to that, she took precious hours of her time to recreate Caroline's memory book from her 4-year old class complete with pictures and all. What a gift to receive something so precious and memorable that we thought was lost forever. You can never repay that kind of love--a love that only comes from a heart filled with Christ.
Thank you, "Miss Phyllis" for all the sweet memories... and especially your sweet labor of love on behalf of our children.
