henry's hands

henry saw his hands today for the first time. this picture and video speak for themselves. he's growing up so fast!

if you can remember, miles was fascinated by his hands for a L-O-N-G time. here is the original post - and this is a copy of the poem I found. it captures this moment so perfectly.

My little hands play patty-cake

they peek-a-boo and wave…

They catch me while I learn to walk

and splash me as I bathe.

My little hands reach up to you

for hugs before I sleep…

And fold together when I pray

the Lord my soul to keep.

My little hands are tiny now

but yours will serve to guide me…

And when I’m grown I’ll still reach out

and know you’re right beside me.
