A Prayer for those Who care for Children with Special Needs

[Guest guest]

Children are like snowflakes--

No two are quite the same.

Each one is a work of art,

Given the right frame.

They don't fit into boxes,

Measured by a test.

No standard score or letter code

Captures them the best.

The kids I live and work with

Color outside the lines.

But they adorn the universe

Like every star that shines.

So while I strive to educate,

(and civilze them, too),

Help me to remember, God--

They each look just like YOU!
