My son's Mother's Day gift

I just got back from picking up my son from pre-school. He came out to car with a little flower pot with his handprints painted on either side. And this poem..

Sometimes you get discouraged

Because I am so small

And always leave my fingerprints

On furniture and the walls

But everday I'm growing up

And soon I'll be so tall

That all those little handprints

Will be hard to recall

So here's a final handprint

From these hands of mine

So you can recall

When I was very small.

:-4

the handmade gifts are always the best.

Sheryl, you will treasure that forever.

I have a handprint I made for Christmas... my mom's handwriting at

the bottom says "57" (kindergarten for me). Here is the verse:

You clean my prints from wall and door,

For I'm not careful when I play,

But here's a print you'll want to keep...

It's made for you this Christmas Day.

Happy Mother's Day!
