Combining calendar skills and handprint art, we came up with a wonderful Christmas present for our parents.
 |
| Cover Page- I know you wipe some away, But these handprints were made to stay. So keep them forever, a treasure they'll be. A special "I Love You", for you from me. |
 |
| January- Happy New Year A year to be glad in, And not to be sad in, To gain in, to give in, A happy new year. A new year for trying, And never for sighing, A new year to live in, Oh, hold it most dear. |
 |
| February- Snowflakes Snowflakes white Are dancing down. Dancing, dancing All around. Each one is different, It's surely true. Here's one I made From me for you! |
 |
| March- Happy St. Patrick’s Day St. Patrick's Day is with us, The day when all that's seen To right and left and everywhere Is green, green, green! |
 |
| April- Fuzzy Wuzzy Caterpillar Fuzzy wuzzy caterpillar Into a corner will creep. He'll spin himself a blanket And then go fast asleep. Fuzzy wuzzy caterpillar Will wake up by and by. To find his wings of beauty, Changed to a butterfly! |
 |
| May- Tulips In the garden Tulips grow Straight and golden In a row. Each one holds Its empty cup Drinking rain And sunshine up. |
 |
| June- The Fish I hold my fingers Like a fish, And wave them As I go. See them swimming With a swish, So swiftly To and fro. |
 |
| July- The Sun Over there The sun gets up, And marches All the day. At noon it stands Right overhead. At night It goes away. |
 |
| August- Row, row, row your boat Gently Down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream. |
 |
| September- The Apple Tree Away up high In the apple tree, Two red apples Smiled at me. I shook the tree As hard as I could And down came the apples, Mmmmm were they good! |
 |
| October- There Was An Owl There was an owl who lived in an oak. The more he heard, the less he spoke; the less he spoke, the more he heard- We all should be like that wise old bird. |
 |
| November- The Turkey This isn't just a turkey, As anyone can see. I made it with my hand, Which is a part of me. It comes with lots of love Especially to say, I hope you have a very Happy Thanksgiving Day! |
 |
| December- Christmas Angels Reach for an angel high on a star; She sends you Christmas wherever you are, Bringing you laughter and faith so supreme, Touching your heart with a beautiful dream. |
 |
| Back- The Hands of A Child by Amy Ethridge When you look at the hand what do you see? There are just some lines most would agree. But take a closer look this very minute And notice the treasures that are found within it. The hand can be so many things, From tulips to beautiful butterfly wings. A Santa, an apple, even a heart, A pumpkin, an umbrella, that's only a start. The hand can be snowflakes that fall from the sky. The hand can be a leprechaun trying to hide. It can be the sunshine to brighten the day. It can be a fish swimming away. It can be a turkey strutting along, Whatever you make it, you can't go wrong. Just take a little time to look and see, Where these hands came from, And you'll surely agree Your child, the artist, reaching his goal, Created this for you with body and soul. Keep it and use it till the time has past. Then put it away so the memories will last.
