This is what Olivia is giving Matt for Father's Day. Yesterday when we went to the library for Toddler Time she did a craft (she made a bookmark for Matt for Father's Day) and I took one of these for her to put her handprints on. I cried the first few times I read it! If you can't read it it says:When I Was Very Small
Sometimes I might upset you
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls.
But every day I grow a bit
And soon I'll be so tall
That all those little fingerprints
Will be so hard to recall.
So here's a special handprint
Just so you can say,
This is how my fingers looked
When I placed them here today.
I read it over the phone to my mom and could not get through reading it without crying! I am such a mush! If you have any ideas on how I could make it a little nicer, I am open for suggestions. I thought about framing it? What do you think?

One father's dad we did that for Kevin too. Very cute!!
How sweet! I think that you should definately frame it.
sorry i didn't read this earlier...what did you do?
I just gave to him as is. I tried framing it, but then I would have to cut the paper and her hands would have got cut off. He loves it the way it is. I think he took it to work, to hang at his desk.
He will love having it to look at everyday!
