Preserving the Memories

Mama and I made handprint ornaments for the tree. Daddy helped some, too. The best thing about making handprints is how the plaster squishes between your fingers when you squeeze it – the worst thing is Mama grabbing your hand, wiping it off, then shaking the mold to flatten the handprint you just made only to stick your hand in again!
Finally I just moved my thumb a little, so it didn’t turn out too bad. Mom put my name and the year on it then tied on a ribbon.
