Father's Day - Lorain,OH

I found a cute poem online about small children. I printed it on plain paper, put a picture of my son on the bottow right and his handprint on the bottom left. I bought a cheap ($4) frame from wal-mart to put it in.
Here's the poem:

Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls

But every day I’m growing —
I’ll be grown some day
And all those tiny handprints
Will surely fade away

So here’s a little handprint
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small

Feel free to us it! I think it looks really good, and cute! I figured my husband can either put it in our room on the dresser or take it to work. Hope this helps, let us know what you end up doing!

If you don't have this already you can get kits and do hand or footprint molds for a nice keepsake, good luck, even a candle lit dinner at home can be a nice surprise.

Hi K.,
I am buying a set of (4) drink coasters from Michael's, the arts and crafts store. They are glass and made so you can insert your own pictures in them. I'm going to put pics of my daughter and husband in each coaster. I'm not sure how much you want to spend, but the store close to me has them for $13.

Or depending on your husbands interests...a keychain with a picture of the baby or even some measuring tapes have a slot to insert a picture. Also you can get a shadow box, spray paint and plaster of paris--- spray paint the shadow box, mix the plaster of paris and stick it in the shadow box with baby's handprint and foot print. My son's father did this for me and it looks great on the wall by all of his pictures!! He even dressed it up with some butterflies and roses. It's the best keepsake ever. Well, that and the plate he had my son paint at color me mine!

you can always take a basic t-shirt and put your childs hand/footprints on it and the every cheesy wolds greatest dad, or let you baby play in the paint, that way he'll get a one of akind original from your baby!
