Each Childs Was Different

Handprints to this day
Are unique they belong to just one person.
Parents seek to preserve them so they can 
Show how little your hand was when you 
Were born. They do this in many ways.
Handprints to this day
Are found in plaster casts, necklaces, scarves,
And placemats which are given to relatives
As gifts on Christmas or birthdays.
It is great when you hear a child say the 
Special part of the gift was mine no one 
Else had it to give. This is true. There's no
Comparison.
Handprints to this day
Are unique they belong to just one person.
