When I was teaching a class of 3 & 4 year olds we used this poem added with a plaster print of each childs hads as a gift for Mom and Dad.
Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls.
But every day I'm growing -
I'll be grown some day
And all those tiny handprints
Will surely fade away.
So here's a little handprint
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small.
Short and sweet but I thought I'd add it after Story Tellers post "Memos From You child". May God bless all the little children of the world.
