Handmade Christmas Ornaments - Part 2

Yesterday, I shared some of the handmade handprint/footprint ornaments that I've made with my children over the past few years.  What made these ornaments a little extra special was the little poem that we attached to the back of each ornament.

Here are some of the poems we used:

This reindeer's a gift, to you from me,

Made with my hands and feet you see.

A pretty pink reindeer, sweet as heaven,

To show you how much I've grown in 2007.

This reindeer ornament was made with love,

To give as a gift to you from me.

You'll see how much I grew in 2005,

When you see his ornament hang on your tree.

This little angel is special you see,

because she is a part of me!

Her wings are my hands, her body my feet,

And on your tree she'll look so sweet!

When you hang this ornament from year to year,

I hope it brings you a smile from ear to ear.

This handprint Santa will help you to remember,

How small I was in 2004 in the month of December.

What a cute penguin, so merry and bright,

Made with my fingerprints of black and white.

I'm growing up so fast, did you hear?

I go to school and have gotten so big this year.
