A Poem for Nikkole's Birthday

Leslie is Unique

Leslie is unique,

‘cause she can finally say…

That’s she’s a “college graduate”

So it’s time to celebrate!

Learned at Anthem College,

Studied all she needs to learn.

Finished doing all her homework,

Now the “big bucks” she can earn.

With a licensed M.A. degree,

All we can say is “Wow!”

We’re insanely proud of Leslie

Which is why we must have a cow~

Graduating on Friday

Little does Leslie know…

We’ll be waiting for her Saturday

Just to tell her “way to go!”

So please join us to shout out

“SURPRISE!” right at four thirty.

You can come dressed as you are

Or you can dress up nice and purty!

Thank you AUNT Lolly!
