Hands!

"I'm so happy -- I have discovered my hands!"
Tiny hands grow so fast
Their awkward groping soon will clasp
A ball, a book, their mother's hand
A diploma, briefcase, wedding band.
___________________________
Tiny hands grow so strong
It doesn't take them very long
To snap a shirt, to paint, to draw
To work hard, to drive a car.
___________________________
Tiny hands that are ours to love
The sweetest gift from God above
A miracle that never is surpassed
How sad they grow up way too fast.

It is so great to discover your hands! Grace you have happy little hands that clap when Daddy & Mommy sing,curious little hands that want to explore,playful little hands that say peek-a-boo,smart little hands that count one, two and three,strong little hands that can make things topple, soft little hands that love to touch you and thankful little hands that will make all of us so proud!

Love, Maddy
