Snowflake Gift
Submitted by Nancy
For a fun/cute gift for your parents have them create a snowflake from a coffee filter or doily. Simply brush on some glue and sprinkle with glitter. Finally add this 'Snowflake Poem' to it:

This is my snowflake, I made it myself.
If it were real, it would quickly melt.
It wouldn't be around forever and ever.
But there is one thing that won't leave us, no, never.
It is God's Love for each of us all.
He will never leave us, He's there when we call.
So if I feel sad or just need a friend,
I can always turn to God, on Him I can depend!
