There used to be so many of my fingerprints to see.
On furniture, on walls and things from sticky little me!
But if you stop and think a while, you see I’m growing fast,
Those fingerprints will disappear. You can’t bring back what’s past.
So here’s a small reminder, to keep not wipe away,
Of tiny fingers, how they were, to make you smile someday!

Lovely photo 🙂
omg those words – i have tears in my eyes now – darn you woman!!! thats just beautiful and very clever and emotional x
Aren't they gorgeous? I love that poem, can't take credit for it though!
time really flies and it doesn't take long before their pudgy baby hands slim out. I think we will do handprints this weekend xx
Good plan! I love his tiny fingers.
great shot…was that on a window?
Yep, he was trying to get nanny's attention on the porch window. Then he played with the handprints for five minutes so I snapped a few!
Brilliant words….. I knew there was a reason I haven't cleaned my windows 🙂
Isn't it lovely? Used this on cards when I was nursery nursing and now I have my own, it's very relevant.
Brilliant picture!
Love that poem I have a fair few of them in the loft at home with various sized hand prints on them.
It is a lovely pic – such a precious keepsake for the memory box.
Oh I love that poem, I remember crying when it was sent to me from nursery with a painted hand print for a mothers day card with my 1st child!
That's so cute, and the poem is so true! I love little handprints 🙂 And I remembered to link up on Saturday evening rather than waiting till tomorrow and being too late! Yay! x
Aww that's very true. Lovely photo of something very precious.
What a lovely poem, such true words. Lovely photo too. I'm usually busy wipping fingerprints off things as the poem says, I should try and snap some next time I come across them.
That is so beautiful! Cool photo and lovely words and so true too.
GREAT choice for your photo of the week – glad you used it x
Gorgeous poem, really made me think, fab photo too
What a lovely photo, I have the poem up on my wall with my sons handprint.
Yes you're right – childhood is so fleeting.
Great snap… love the sentiment too.
that is a very beautiful poem and the picture goes so nicely with it :')
I love that poem! We used that for a hand printing we did for JC's naming ceremony. I think you have given me some inspiration this week!
Oh I love this, what a great memory
beautiful verse 🙂 x
Great poem and photograph…so true!
That's so lovely. I've been moaning about the paintwork having finger prints on it all week. Made me look at it differently.
Lovely pic and lovely words xxxx
I love this and will be trying to recreate it!
Such an arty photo, yet again, and very moving words too. Great work, captain!
Love it. My 2YO sits outside the shower when I get in and demands me to draw in the steam. I'm quite a dab hand at shower door brachiosaurus.
that actually did leave me with a big smile on the face… 🙂
My mum told me that one when I was still wee, and telling her to clean up my finger prints from the living room door! lol 🙂
Adore it <3
I love this!! Beautiful words.
