2. St. Louis Catholic School Parent’s and Faculty In thanksgiving for your giftedness and as a reminder that your work is a sign of hope for the children. To:

3. When you have a choice – I hope you dance

4. I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

5. You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger

6. May you never take one single breath for granted

7. God forbid love ever leave you empty handed

8. I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

9. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

10. Promise me you’ll give faith a fighting chance

11. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance I hope you dance

12. I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

13. Never settle for the path of least resistance

14. Livin’ might mean takin’ chances but they’re worth takin’

15. Lovin’ might be a mistake but it’s worth makin’

16. Don’t let some hell bent heart leave you bitter

17. When you come close to sellin’ out reconsider

18. Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance

19. And when you get a choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance I hope you dance. I hope you dance I hope you dance. (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along. Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)

20. I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

21. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

22. Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance

27. To the Principals of the Archdiocese of Portland In thanksgiving for your support and as a reminder that our work is to be a sign of hope for the children --
