    Default Mother's Day handprint poem

    I saw a poem on here a few weeks ago that would be ideal for what I'm making with my LO's but I can't find it!!

    Any help would be appreciated

    I had one on my toilet wall when dd was little. I think it went something like this ?

    You always clean my fingerprints I leave upon the wall
    I seem to make a mess of things because I am so small
    But I am growing quickly and soon be grown like you
    And all my little fingerprints will surely fade from view
    so here's my special handprint just so you can recall
    Exactly how my fingers looked when I was very small

    Might need tweaks a bit as I can't quite remember

    This was it:


    HANDS OF LOVE

    There are so many of my fingerprints to see,
    On the furniture and walls and things,
    From sticky, grubby me.

    But, if you stop and think awhile,
    You’ll see I’m growing fast,
    Those little handprints disappear
    You can’t bring back what’s past.

    So here’s a small reminder
    To keep, not wipe away,
    Of tiny hands and how they looked,
    To make you smile some day!

    I'm using it, so thanks to the OP!!
