I didn't keep the paper
Sunday School ornaments.
I kept one preschool ornament
of my son's fingerprint.
It hangs on the tree in his old room.
My baby who was 3 years old
is now 28!
I kept all the Hallmark ornaments
but the ones dear to my heart
were made a friend.
She cross-stitched their names.
Born in 1982, my baby girl is now 31.
This was made for my baby boy, 3 years later.
These ornaments will forever find a place
on my tree until they are ready to take them home
for their babies to enjoy.
Call me a "sentimental fool."
It's beginning to look like Christmas!

I love those special things, Bonnie. Last year I gave all the kids their special ornaments and split my huge Santa collection between the four of them- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I wish I had an ornament like that of each of my daughters' thumb prints.So special. I have given the girls their ornaments they help make and collect through the years...but I still have some to look at and take that memory trip of the good old days. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
