How to use "Pat" in context?
Pat, pat, pat. It was all she could do to soothe the three-year-old sniveling on the ground, her own tears blurring her vision. The little girl had been run over by a car, and Pat had been the first person to see her. Now, instead of the warm fuzzies she'd hoped to evoke, all Pat could feel was the sickening guilt that she could have prevented the accident if she'd been paying more attention to her surroundings.
